THE SECRET ADVERSARY
by tekkichan

Tuppence!

Tommy!

You?!

Of all people, You!

- Ducks.
- Of course.

Oh, dear old bean...

- Demob?
- Yes, two months ago.
thr

- You?
- Five months ago.

- Your DOD?
- Spent.

Oh, Tommy!

Oh no, not in your right anticipation,
no such luck.

Cost of living you know.

My dear boy,

There's nothing I don't know
about the cost of living.

Can you afford a run in truppence?

Of course I can.

Oh you always
were a shocking liar.

Come on, a pot of tea, a pair of bun
and each pay our own.

Anyway, there I was
in that wretched hospital...

coming out of the anestetic,
and there you were.

Wretched nurse.

I tought you were an angel.

I tought you were dying,
you looked awful.

you looked exactly as you looked,
all those years before...

up a tree,

you remember,
chucking apples startling the rest of us.

It's an effecting reunion,
I agree.

Is not true, you did look rather cleaner.

Anyway, a month later
they sent me back to the front.

1916...
seems a lifetime ago.

I've told her she wouldn't have the flat after all
it was simply above him my dear...

Just like the one Mabel Lewis
brought back from París.

Ridiculous
conversations people have.

Do you know, I heard someone talking
on the street yesterday about somebody called a...

Jane Finn.
Did you ever hear such a ludicrous name.

How about a job?
Any prospects?

There aren't any jobs.

Anyway even if there were,
they wouldn't give it to me.

I mean why should they?

I'm an ex-serviceman with absolutely
no qualifications whatsoever.

Money is all I think about.

Money. Morning, noon and night.

Same here. I tried
all the orthodox ways of making money.

How about the unorthodox?

If only we could get ourselves known

people might hire us
to commit crimes for them!

And just how do you propose to get
in touch with our...

would be employers?

Advertisement.
Got a pencil and paper?

Yes, err, as a matter of fact I have.

- Somewhere....
- Over.

There.
Now how about...

Young officer,
wounded in the war...

twice wounded in the war...

Here we are.

Two young adventurers for hire...

willing to do anything,
go anywhere.

Pay must be good.

No reasonable offers refused.

I should think all offers we get
that will be unreasonable one.

Tommy, you're a genius!
that's much more.

No unreasonable offers refused.

May I speak with you for a moment?

If you're gonna to make a nuisance of yourself,
I warn you I shall scream.

I mean no disrespect...

I happened to overhear part of
the conversation....

you had with the young gentleman
in the tea room.

You did?

I think I may able to help you.

Is that the reason you followed me here?

It's the only reason, I assure you.

Whittington is the name,

you can call on me upon my office
tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock...

I will lay the details
of my proposition before you.

One hundred pounds done
and all expenses paid ?

That is my proposition.

And... the... nature of work?

Shall we say
a pleasure trip.

Where to?

- París.
- Oh!

What would be more delighful
than turning the clock back a few years ...

a very few I am sure.

And re enter one of those
"pensionnats de jeunes filles",

Paris abound .

Finishing scholl?

All in informal nature.

For how long?

That depends.

Possibly three months.

You would have to go in the character
of my ward, and I should have to insist on...

absolute secrecy.

And there are no
other conditions?

None, whatever.

And surely you're not gonna refuse,
it's a very liberal offer Miss ....

Finn, Jane Finn.

Very clever young woman,
but not very wise.

Now who you've been working?
Rita?

Rita... no.
Rita knows nothing about me.

I should advise you not to play the fool with me.
How much do you know?

- Very little indeed.
- Well how much you want?

Money?

Well, I presume this is intended as a blackmail.
or is it something else you're after?

Come in.

Message for you, sir.

Okay Brown, you may go.

Comeback tomorrow the same time.
I'm, err, I'm busy now.

This is 50 pound, you going on with it.

I didn't mention my real name
because of poor father

So i just invented one you know,
in case you got involved in anything shabby.

Perhaps so,
But you didn't invent it.

- Didn't i?
- No, no you didn't. Thank you.

No, I told it to you.
Don't you remember?

I said yesterday I'd overheard
two people talking about...

a female called, Jane Finn

that's how I put it on your mind.
- So you did, I remember now.

- Tommy...
- Yes?

What were they like,
the two men that passed you?

Well, one was a big, dark...

burly sort of chap
quite handsome, I suppose.

Do you know, I think I met him.
How extraordinaty, that's Whittington

And what's the other one like?

Ah, well I didn't notice him particulary

It was really the outlandish name
that caught my attention.

And people say
coincidences don't happen.

Tuppence,
what is this going to lead to?

Who knows. Might get another 50 pounds?

Yes, if you insist on celebrating

on your new found wealthy
in places like this ...

you will have to.

Well, you hungry or what?

- Hungry.
- Well then...

But seriously Tuppence,

this man Whittington,
he was, err, angry you say?

- Very

It's likely to be more so tomorrw.
You can't bluff him forever, you know.

You're sure to slip up, soon or later.

Where's your spirit of adventure gone?

- Oh, they're gone.
- Gone?

Yes, in the afternoon.
The company being wind up, they sayin'.

Thank you.

I suppose you don't have Whittington's adress.

I'm afraid I don't, miss.
They left, rather suddenly.

Yes they did, didn't they?

Cheer up. It can't be helped.

That's where you're wrong.
This isn't the end you know, it's just the beginning.

Tuppence, the man's vanished,
it can't be the beginnng of anything.

- Have a bun.
- I don't want a bun.

Tommy, don't you see?

If this was enough to run away

then there must be a lot
in this Jane Finn business.

Got a pencil?

Oh, not again!

When we get the bottom of this,

we'll be sleuth and honest.

No one left to sleuth.

That's why I will have to
start all over again

Wanted any information
respecting... Jane Finn.

- Oh! The waiting, I can't bear
- Well, the advertisement only went in this morning

Sometimes, Thomas Beresford,
you're irritatingly logical.

- Oh look! What's that?
- What?

- There! in the grass!

Ah! Someone must have lost it.

- Rather pretty, isn't it?
- Yes, it is pretty.

- I suppose we ought to hand it in.
- It's not worth anything.

- How can you tell?
- Cheap glass.

I'll take it as an omen
that our luck's about to change.

It should better,
five pounds won't last forever.

Tuppence, have you tought
supposing there's no reply?

To an advertisement on The Times,
don't be ridiculous.

Sorry to dissapointed you, old thing,
good money wasted.

- Tommy...
- still there it is, only two replies.

Oh you devil!

Oooh, thick paper this one.
Looks rich.

We'll leave it to the last.
and open the other first.

Right you are.

"Dear Sir:

referring to your advertisement
in this morning's paper...

I might be able to be of some use to you.

Perhaps you could call and see me
at the above adress 11 o'clock.

Yours trully.: A. Carter."

27 Carshalton Garden.

Plenty time to get there, if we go by taxi.

Plenty time to get there, if we go by tube.

Ah, it's from the Ritz!

"Dear Sir:
Re your advertisement...

I should be glad if you would call around.

Somewhere about lunch time.

Yours truly. Julius Hersheimmer".
Oh I like the sound of Mr. Hersheimmer.

Lunch time frequently leads
to free food.

But first, Carshalton Gardens.

What we want to know Mr. Carter,
is what do you know about Jane Finn.

Well the question is what do you
know about Jane Finn.

I really don't see what it has to do
with this.

Oh, but it has you know, really.

You must know something to advertise it
as you did.

I suppose you tell me.

We couldn't do that, could we, Tommy?

I dare say, the little we know
won't be any good to you, sir.

But such as it is
you're welcome to it.

- Tommy!
- Do you know who I am?

Recognized you at once, sir.

I saw you in France,
when I was with the Intelligence

Fire ahead Tuppence.

I suppose it's started when Tommy and I
bumped into.....

when we go there,
Whittington had vanished.

So we advertised.

Yes, I see.

Well,
you're a curious young couple,

if you don't mind my saying so.

Well, if it's adventure you want...

how would you like to work for me?

All quite unofficial, you understand.

But err...
Expenses paid and moderate salary

What should we have to do?

Go on with what yu're doing now,
find Jane Finn.

Yes, but... who is Jane Finn?

In the early days of 1915

secret treaty was
drawn up in America,

that time a neutral country.

It was dispatched to England
for certain signatures,

by a special messanger,
young fellow called Danvers.

Danvers sailed for England
on The Lusitania

He carried the precious papers,
in an oil skin package, which he wore next into his skin

it was on that particular voyage,

That The Lusitania
was tropedoed and sunken.

in a few moment during
the launching boat,

Danvers was seen speaking to
a young American girl.

Nobody actually saw him
pass anything to her,

but he might have done so.

When his body was eventually washed ashore
and identified,

beyond any possible doubt,

the oil skin packing was missing.

And that girl was Jane Finn?

We think he entrusted the papers to her,

believing that she, as a woman

would have a greater chance to bring
them safer to shore.

- But Jane Finn vanished.
- And the treaty?

It seems that the treaty
was not destroyed at all,

and has assumed a new and
deadly significance.

It's publication now would
embarrass our goverment

strengthen the possibility
of a general strike.

General strike?

Which would in turn
lead to revolution in this country,

and the danger
of war in Europe.

Who in their right mind would ever...?

We don't know that this man
is in his right mind

He's spoken quite simply...
as Mr. Brown.

And you think he has the treaty.

Ah, we think he has knowledge of it.

And if he got it,
he would certainly make use of it.

And Jane Finn?

Maybe dead for what we know.

But I don't think so,
because the curious thing is

that they are now trying to get
information about the girl, from us.

But, whatever for?

What does Mr.Brown want?

Supreme power for himself,
for the kind unique in history.

You know who it is Sir?

There's no clues at all
as for his real identity.

Even his followers aren't aware of it.

And his one idiocyncracy,

he never plays the principal part.

But whenever we've come across his track
he's there,

somewhere in the background...

maybe as a clerk, waiter or
cabman,

Once he's even
as a clergymen, too.

But aways the name is mentioned,
Brown.

Oh! In Whinttington's office, the clerk!
He was called Brown.

Can you describe him?

Just ordinary, you know
like everyone else.

Invariable description
of Mr. Brown,

an unassuming sort of chap.

But I must warn you both,

You'll be putting yourself
against a formidable organization.

And the bussines side?

Of it.

Funds within reason.

Detailed information on any point.

But no official recognition.
Whatsoever.

How much?

Tuppence.

Mmm, should we say the rate of...

300 a year?

Each?

Each.

Oh, Tommy!

Pinch me, I can't believe it's real.

Yes, we're not dreaming.

- We've got a job.
- And what a job!

Oh, the joyous adventure have really begun!

Funny how it makes you hungry.

Everything used to make you hungry.

Well it must be nearly lunch time.

Julius P. Hersheimmer.

We didn't tell Mr. Carter about him.

Well there's nothing much to tell
not till we've seen him, but...

we better take a taxi!

Now who's being extravagant?

Are you telling us
Jane Finn is your cousin?

My father and her mother
were brother and sister.

Then you know where she is?

I'm done if I do!
Don't you?

We advertise to receive
information, Mr. Hersheimmer,

- Not to give it.
- I know, I can read.

But I tought it maybe a bit of past history
you're interested,

and you might know where she is right now.

Are you telling me the truth?

Oh, we really don't know where she is.

I know why I try to find her.
Why you try to find her?

Why are you trying to find her?

When they were young
my parents were very close,

They had a row, a big row

My aunt Jane, that's Jane's mother,

insisted on marry the man she loved
except, the man she loved is poor

In my experience most man are.

Do you mind?

Oh, thanks!

My father was half mad .

Said if he's ever strike oil,
he was speaking metaforically understand,

she wouldn't see a cent of it.

Then he went stike oil

Literally?

Yeah! My dad ended up
the third richest man in America

And last fall, he died.
And I got the dollars

So now you're the third
richest man in América?

Yes, I wanted to share my wealth

with the only living relative
I knew I have left in the world,

cousin Jane.

But when I wanted track her down
I just found she just bun vanished.

That's why I'm trying to find her.
Why are you?

Well, you see, we're kinda
private investigators

Not kind of, we are!

Who've been hired
to try to find your cousin,

because it's tought that
the moment she disapeared,

she had, err, quite unlikely,

got mixed up in some political show.

She maybe held somewhere
against her will.

Well, makes some sense.

When I've tried to start a line of inquiriy
I've been turned away.

Scotland Yard they were civil enough.

Even sent a man around this morning
to pick her photograph

quite an assuming sort of chap.

You....don't happen
to remember his name?

Yes, I do.

No, err, I don't...

I got it here though, just a second.

Here it is.

Inspector Brown.

Are you sure? Quite sure?

Well, I guess I must have been mistaken

Thank you. Good bye.

Well you're quite right. Miss Tuppence,

There is no Inspector Brown
in Scotland Yard.

I am sorry.

I don't understand

Why would anyone want to
steal cousin Jane's photograph?

Was there anything special about it?

To me there was

as far as I know,
it's the only photograph ever, in existance

Now what do I do?

We're going have to tell him,
it isn't fair.

I agree.

I'll tell him,
you book us in.

Won't the goverment find that
a little excessive?

The Goverment?

Hey, wait a minute
what are you two?

He said funds within reason.

Yes, I'm not sure that
within reason covers The Ritz

We keeping in touch with

Jane Finn only living relative

Well, if you'll excuse me

Of course!

I'll see you both later,

I'm off to do a little
sleuthing of my own.

My colleague and I will confirm

Facts known, facts to be ascertain,

and then we'll map up our plan of campaign

Good.
Make yourselves at home.

Thank you.

Just like you to know

It's a real pleasure
having you around.

I didn't know
nice millionaire's existed

Money have charms

Now lets concentrate

To begin with,
what do we have to go on?

Absolutely nothing.

- Wrong, we have two distinct clues
- Have we?

First clue, We know
a member of the gang

Whittington

We'll recognize him anywhere

I don't call that much of a clue

Never mind,
clue two much more promising

It better be

Rita, a name
Whittington mentioned

I know, you're proposing
a third advertisement

"Wanted female crook...

answers to the name of Rita"

No, I am not

I propose to reason
in logical manner

That man, Danvers

was shadowed a long away ago,
wasn't he?

And it was more likely to have been
by a woman than by a man.

I don't see that at all.

Well, it's obvious

Women and children first

and that woman,
whoever she was

was saved.

How do you make that out?

Well if she wasn't,

How would they've known that Jane Finn
still have the papers?

There's something of the simplicity of

the great mind about you, Tuppence.

Thank you

Now there's a chance,
I admit it, only a chance,

This woman may have been Rita

And if so?

We've got to hunt through
the survivors of The "Lusitania"

till we find her.

We must have walked pathway around
London these past few days

and all we have to show
is one Fredda,four Marys

and a couple of Bertas

I'm beginning to feel discouraged,

I like things to happen quickly

You must stifle this longing for

vulgar sensation Tuppence.

Remember, if Mr. Brown
is all he's reported to be

it's a wonder he's not
even order our death .

Yet here we are unscated.

Perhaps he doesn't think
it's worth pounding about.

Well, we'll have just show him.
Won't we?

Who's next?

Mrs. Vandemeyer,
number 20.

Right Mrs. Vandemeyer,
here we come.

Christian name?

Marguerite, sir.

M-A-R-G-A-R

No, G-U-E

Marguerite! I see, French.

Actually, on the old
boating register

we have her down as Rita Vandemeyer

She's mostly known as Rita

But Marguerite is her real name,

so she says.

Thank you. Thank you very much.
Good bye.

- Did you hear it?
- Oh Tommy!

You know, old thing, I feel the same.

It's so lovely to think things
never meant to really ....

Oh, heaven!

Quick! Follow them,
I dare he might recognize me.

Who are they?

I don't know who the fair one is

but the dark one, that's Whittington

Waterloo, and hurry

You busy?

What's it worth?

Half a crown.

Sorry Guv,
have another urgent delivery.

No.

Not that urgent, mind you,
come on then, jump up

Follow that handsome cab!

It ain't like that, sonny.

It ain't?

Good guys, bad guys
Good cops, bad cops

it ain't that easy

Is in here Miss.

Say you got dark hair and swabby skins
and don't shave proper, they're bad un's

- Even the cops?
- Especially the cops, miss

You sound like a bright young lad, William

Name is Albert, Miss.

Hey what's up with your voice?

My voice? which voice?
I have so many voices.

It was an American a minute ago.

In next minute I am French
and on all minutes I'm Russian

So?

Must get a bit confusing.

It isn't the voice
that's confusing, Herbert.

Albert.

It's all those disguises

Can you imagine what is like
get into bed in a ...

completely different person from the person
you got out in the morning

You're not film star, or something?

I wish I were

You know what is this?
Secret service

Shouldn't be telling me that

We know the people we can trust

And we never forget... a friend

You know who I am after?

One of the flats?

Number 20, calls herself Vandemeyer

Crook is she?

Ready Rita they call her

Annie always said
she's a bad lot

- Annie?
- Yes, the house parlourmaid

She's leaving,
regular turn up they had

Said that Annie's reading her letters

Oh, she won't find it so easy
to get another

Listen, how would it be
if you were to say that you had a cousin,

or friend of yours had,
who might suit the place?

You leave it to me miss,
I'll fix the offering in two ticks

Good lad, I'll see you
tomorrow morning 11 o'clock

Oh in disguise?

Au revoir

- Paper please

- Thanks
- Thank you Sir.

First class single to
Bournemouth please

- Just one?
- Just the one

Damn

Your train does not leave until 3,30.
so we still have twenty minutes

Single Bournemouth please,

Third class.
Thanks.

- Number please
- Hyde Park 8181 please

Be there Julius, be there

Ritz, can I help you

Julius P. Hersheimmer, please.

Your British traffic retold
the scriptions.

Right, which one is mine?

Whinttington, that tall dark chap
getting in the carriage now

here's your ticket.

I can only afford
third class, sorry.

Run man, run!

Neither of them?

No, miss

Mr. Bereford has left no
saying since he left you this morning

He might have wire or something.

Oh open up would you please.
And err Mr. Hersheimmer?

He had a phone call about 3.10
and then he just left

That's really too mean of them

here am I,
bursting with news

and not a single soul
to tell it to.

Men really are very
unreasonable, Harry

Name is Henry, miss

Mr. Brown

Well?

Mr. Brown?

Second door on the left,
upstairs

Mr. Brown?

Second door on the left,
upstairs.

Enter.

Your number, comrade?

I am number One

We're honoured

Greatly honoured

We tought it might be
impossible for you to get here.

One meeting cause is so essential
to define my policy

So, let us proceed

Damn

Now, in the matter of a

loan to an english newspaper

you have arranged the details
satisfactory, Boris?

I think so.

That is good, an official denial
from Moscow will be issued, if necessary

And... the date?

The 29th

That is sooner than we planned?

Information reached us
from Mr. Brown

that the goverment plans
to change the law.

We have to move quickly

I understood there was
a certain document

in existance?

That is so.

If that document were placed
before the labour leaders,

the result would be immediate,
they would publish it,

broadcast throughout England

and declare for the revolution
without the moment hesitation

Goverment would be
broken, finally and completely

Then, what more you want?

The document ..... itself

It is not in our posession?

- No
- But you know where it is

Only one person, perhaps

And we're not sure even of that

- Who?
- A girl.

A girl!
Yet you have permit to speak?!

Where is this girl?

She is...

How did you get into this house?

You better ask your watchdog.

You let him in?!

He gave the password.
How was I to know?

You deny you're listening
at the door?

Frightfully bad manners, I know,

but your conversation was
so interesting it overcame my scrupulous.

Unfortunately
it was not a conversation

intended for your ears,

which is why you're now be put to death

Just a moment.

I ask you, do I really look as

though I haven't think the least chance
of you killing me?

Now ask yourself why
I am so confident

Gentlemen,

Because I know something
that put me in a

position to propose a bargain.

A bargain

My life and liberty

against the papers that Danvers
brought across America in The Lusitania

Danvers...

I see you've got
this papers?

But you know where they are?

Well, I do believe I know
where to find them

And may I also
remind you gentlemen

that your big day, the 29th,

is less than a fortnight ahead

We accept on certain terms

The papers must be delivered
to us before you go free

Oh, don't be such an idiot!

How could I search for it,
if you keep me locked up here?

What do you expect then?

I make two conditions:

One, I must
have complete liberty

to go about the business in my own way.

And two, I must question the girl

What girl?

Jane Finn, of course

I wonder my friend

If you know as much as
you would have us think.

See this door?

We're right outside,
just remember that

Is the patient ready now, nurse?

Yes, certainly.

I'll get her

Apart from the havoc
that you reeked in the shrubbery

none of your bones is broken

I say spleen,
but nothing serious

Provided you put no weight on it

You mean I can't move?

Precisely

But no worry,
you'll go on about again, in a couple days

Well I should have say sorry Mr....

Doctor, Doctor Hall.
this is my nursing home.

Julius P. Hersheimmer

Glad to meet you, Doc

Well I guess you
must be little curious

as to what i was doing on that drain pipe

Well, it had occured to me

That the expedition might be
a diversion of interest

Well you see Doc, it was like this

I met this girl,

this very special girl,
you understand

On the boat comin' over

When she talked to me
I could tell.

But her guardian didn't,
I don't know he locked her in her cabin

Gave me some guff
about her being mentally disturbed

and needing treatment.

A fair diagnosis of

anyone in love, wouldn't you say?

Anyway I needed to
to come to Bournemouth

so I decided to check
all the nursing homes in the area

I climbed your drain pipe
and have a look in.

Believe it or not,
I tought I saw someone I knew

talking to one of your nurses.

Mr. Whittington I presume

That's the man

Mr. Whittington have a niece
in the staff here, he keep to see her

Is he hanging around still?

No. He went back, returned home
almost imediately.

Well, I better have the address of his niece?

Nurse Edith also left here
tonight with a patient

Damn!

I'm so sorry,

I tought you were a friend of mine.

Breakfast at last!

Never tought I'm about to receive such--

Oh no, please don't go,
not yet!

I just want to ask you something

Are you Jane Finn?

My name is Annette, monsieur.

Français.

Monsieur parle Francais?

Not for a long time, I'm afraid.

Annette,
have you heard that name before?

I have heard people mentioned it, monsieur.

Who mentioned it?

I must go, they will be waiting for me-

Don't go, please!

Now, that's what I call a disguise,
best if iI hadn't known you

Trick of the tray Calbert,
trick of the tray

I'm Albert, miss

Now then, am I your cousin
am I not?

♪

You may sit down

How did you hear
I want to hire a parlourmaid?

My cousin's the lift boy,
he tought the place might suit me

You speak like an
educated girl

I am an educated girl

But it's difficult these day
even for an educated girl to get a job

Your name?

Prudence Cooper, ma'am

You could come at once, Prudence?

Today, if you like.

I've got my references

Good

You will find this is
an easy place

Two afternoons off a week,
Friday and Sunday

I should be out to lunch
today, Prudence

But tonight

I have a very special guest
coming to dinner

She is new, the girl?

She came today

You sure she's safe?

The hall porter recomended her,
something family

How do you know
he was not bribed

Why on earth should
anybody want to bribe him?

Really Boris, sometimes you're
absurdly suspicious.

Oh, botheration!

- You exaggerate
- I do not exaggerate

Sir James Peel Edgerton

He's a celebrated lawyer
he's a distinguished politician

And a lightfull companion

You are a very
clever woman Rita

And like many clever women

You are fool
when men are concerned

You must give him up

I think you've forgotten
something, Boris Ivanovitch.

I take my orders from one man,

and one man only

Mr. Brown.

But I will tell you
what Mr. Brown would tell you

That Peel Edgerton
has studied crimes

like no other man in this
country has studied it

He could smell a criminal,
you fancy you can deceive him?

I do not need to deceive him

I'm a beautiful woman, Boris

That is Sir James's only
interest in me

- Do not
- Besides...

he's extremely rich.

Money!

That is always the danger
with you Rita, money.

I believe you would sell
your soul for it.

How so Boris?
How very whimsical of you

I believe you would even
sell ..... us

you're quite save

It would take a much richer man
than Sir James to pay the price

Shall we go into dinner?

Well, I suppose there's a kind of beauty
in the old familiar things.

Annette, look at me.

I want you to help me
get out of this place

Would you help me?
If you could

You have spied on them,
they are quite right to keep you here

Wouldn't you do something
to help another girl, about your own age?

You mean Jane Finn?
It is her you came in to look for, yes?

Yes, always I hear that name,
Jane Finn

Then you must know
something about her

I know nothing, only the name

Nothing, not a word?
From either of them?

No, miss

I found the little fella you told me.

Really...

Henry, but he said there's still nothing

Oh, it's nearly two whole days!

- I won't conceal it from you, Wilbert.
- Albert.

I'm worried.

And mind you do,
these stairs were absolute disgrace, yesterday.

What?

Yes, won't happen again
promise you Miss

- Good morning Sir. James
- Good morning Albert

- You are new here, surely?
- Yes, sir

Not been doing this sort of work
long, I imagine?

Nurse, perhaps?

Yes, Sir

Good place here,
would you think?

I hope so, sir

Just remember, there are always
other good places

sometime a change
does no harm

But I've only... just started

Just a hint, that's all.
Tell your mistress I am here, will you?

Yes

"Dear Mr Carter, I'm really worried
Tommy has disapeared...

the last time I saw him,
two days ago

when we saw Mr. Whittington
and another man coming out of...

Just where have you been?

I'll explain all that in a minute

Miss Tuppence,
those darn fool downstairs

told me that Beresford
hasn't been seen since yesterday.

- Is that true?
- Don't you know where he is?

I have not heard a word of him,
since we split up in the depo.

- Depo?
- Waterloo.

What on earth're the pair of you
doing in Waterloo?

Beresford gave me a call.
sayd he's following the trails of this crooks

Boris and Whittington?

Yes the big one is mine,
the one you bluffed.

Beresford shove a ticket into my hand
and told me get aboard the cars

He said he was gonna sleuth the other one

You don't know anything at all about this?

I know little

Boris whatever his name,
was dining

at Mrs. Vandemeyer's last night

Mrs. who?

Rita Vandemeyer, was on the Lusitania
with your cousin Jane Finn

And she tried to befriend her,

And I'm working at her flat
as a parlourmaid

You mean you're a menial?

I'm a special agent
pretending to be a menial

Do you think this Boris
is likely to comeback to this flat again?

I don't know, he might

Well, we just have to be
ready for him

Look, I'm gonna buy a car

dress as a chauffeur
and hang about outside

You don't think that maybe
thrive a conspicuous?

Well that's just a chance
we'll have to take

Oh, Miss Tuppence
What kind of car would you like?

How did you do it?

- Well you know your chance of the exchequer?
- No, personally no.

Well, I wen't around to this house
over there on Downing Street

Said I reckon this machine
is worth everybody US$ 20.000

I told him i'll give him
US$ 50.000, if he get out of it

- And?
- He got out of it.

Suffice for, he's a
chancellor of the Excequer

Could be, come on hop in

I'd like to see this
South Audley mansion of yours.

Oh no, I've been thinking

I think we should concentrate on

Mrs. Vandemeyer's other visitor

- Sir James Peel Edgerton
- Who the hell is he?

A barrister and MP and
an expert of detection

In other word, professional.

Even they seem scared of him

Well he spoke to me this morning, and
i think he was trying to tell me something

My dear young lady,
as far as I recollect

I only mentioned that there are
equally good situations

to be found elsewhere

But it was a hint, wasn't it?

Perhaps

I said I didn't expect you
to turn up here only

few hours later,
miraculously transformed

and cross question me
about it.

Sir James, I want to know
why you gave me that hint.

Well, if I had a
young sister

forced to earn her living,

I should not like to see her
in Mrs. Vandemeyer's service

That's all I can tell you

I see, thank you.

Thank you very much.

But now perhaps you'll tell me
what was worrying you.

- Tommy.
- Who is Tommy?

He's Miss Tuppence's childhood friend,
and we're trully worried now, since he's...

Where is Tommy?

You've done extremely
well so far.

But it's rather too bad of him--
well you know him as Carter, I think you say?

Mr. Carter, to pitchfork you
on an affair of this kind

We can only hope that your friend

Tommy is still alive.

But we can find him.

- But how?
- Through Mrs. Vandermeyer

The one person in all probability
knows where he is

She'll never tell us

I think I can promise you
that she will tell me

And if she wont?

We could try bribery,
she likes money.

Oh, that's where I come in.

I was wondering
where you came in?

Jane Finn is my cousin.

Ah!

And you can count on me,
if needed, for 1 million dollars

Mr. Hersheimmer, that is a
very large sum.

Well I don't think those kind of
people you can offer sixpence to, do you?

He's not pulling
your leg, Sir James

He is disgustingly rich.

So what do we get down to it?
What's your idea?

Sir James

Miss!

Thank goodness you've turn back.
she's going!

Who's going?

The crook, Lady Rita.

She's packin' up and she just sent down
word for me to get her a taxi

You're my right hand Carter, come on

There's a telephone here,
isn't there

The flats have their own miss,
but there's a box just round the corner

Fine, go to the corner and phone
Ritz Hotel and ask for Mr. Hersheimmer

- Mr. Who?
- Hersheimmer

And when you speak to him
ask him to tell Sir James

to come up at once because
Mrs. verdemayer is about to hook in

Hersheimmer, Hersheimmer, Hersheimmer

I've got toothache ma'am

So I .....
tought to come home

and have a quiet evening

You better go to bed?

I'll be alright
in the kitchen

You little fool,
do you think I don't know?

If you startle or cry out
I'll shoot

Sit down

Put your hands above your head

And if you value your life
don't move them

How clever.

I'd say that for you,
I have no suspicion at all

But I think we know
where we stand now.

Wouldn't you agree?

What is that?

Something to make you sleep

You're not going to poison me,
are you?

Perhaps.

And then again...
Perhaps not.

Then I shan't drink it

I much rather being shot,
I refuse to be killed off quietly

Do you really think I would

offer you a cry for murder
after me

It's a sleeping draught,
that's all.

It's poison.

I know, it's poison, please don't,

- don't make me drink it.
- Stop snivelling

You'll wake up tomorrow morning,
none the worse.

- You swear it?
- I swear it.

very well.

Right.

I think we know where we stand now,
would you agree?

Supposing we ...
Sit down.

Our present attitude is
ridiculously melodramatic.

No no no, not on the bed,

Over here

That's right.

Splendid.

Now lets talk.

What about?

- Money.
- Money?

Always useful, don't you think?

Particularly when there's
a lot of it.

Do you think I'm the kind of woman
to sell my friends?

The price is high enough,

You couldn't buy me.

I couldn't?
But I know a friend that could.

Shall we say
100.000 pounds?

You can take it from me, It's a
perfectly genuine proposition.

What does he want to know?
This friend of yours.

Where to find Jane Finn.
You do know?

Oh yes, I do know.

What's there?
What... Someone's listening?

- How could they be?
- You don't know him.

Him? Who?
Mr. Brown you mean?

Forget about Mr. Brown
for minute.

And think about one hundred
thousand pounds.

He'll never let me get it,
you don't know him, he's ...

Julius!

- Brandy, quickly.
- it's her heart I think.

No no, not there.

In the cupboard in the dining room.

the second...
Oh don't bother, I'll go myself.

Mr. Hersheimmer,
Would you open that window?

Here.

- Sir James.
- Thank you.

- Miss. Tupence could you help me?
- Yes, of course.

- Oh, dear.
- Let me.

Drink it, it's only brandy,
I promise you.

It's my heart. I musn't talk

All we can do now,
is to let her rest

Can we get her on to the bed?

- Okay.
- What happened, Miss. Tuppence?

I just offered her a hundred
thousand pounds

To tell me where
Jane Finn was.

When suddenly,
she seemed terrified

Thought she heard something,

but it was just you two.

It's not the most timely entrance,
I'm afraid.

But we got the message from young Albert

who was convinced you're in danger

He's right, I was.
But how did you get in?

Luckily the porter had
the masterkey.

We're not gonna get anything
out of her till the morning.

But I don't think we ought
to leave the flat.

She wouldn't clear off
for a hundred thousand pounds.

She might.

She seems very frightened
of Mr. Brown.

Miss Tuppence is right.

You don't think he'll get after her
between now and tomorrow morning.

How would he even know?

We have a very formidable adversary,
Mr. Hersheimmer.

And we have an important
witness.

She must be safeguarded.

Well there's one thing
I'd like to know.

Who put her to clearing out?

Mr. Brown, I suppose.

And in the moment
she's gonna told me who she was...

A bit different from The Ritz, innit?

Don't leave!

Sleepy, so tired.

Mr. Brown.

I shan't leave the flat.

I'll sit up all night.

Take the key out please,
Miss. Tuppence.

And lock the door.

You have a pocket?

Yes, Sir James.

Put the key in it, then.

There must be no chance
of anyone entering the room

Leave him, Annette

I just wanted one last
look at him.

You have tied him up so well...

Annette!

Je viens!

Dormez bien.

Miss Tuppence,
are you alright?

I'm sorry.

He's here,
somewhere in the flat,

I know he is.

But you, yourself locked the door.

The key is in your pocket

There's no other way through
to that room.

Mr. Brown is here,

I can feel him.

Hurry, this way

give me the key

He has escaped!
He has escaped!

What's going on?

The English man, he has escaped!

Mon Dieu! Mon Dieu!
Qu'est qu´il y a?

Voilá la clé!

No, no, don't shoot!

Good morning, Mrs. Vandemeyer

I've brought you some tea.

Julius, would you open
the other curtain please?

Mrs. Vandemeyer?

She's dead!

She must have been dead
for some time.

That's impossible!

No one could have got in

She's on the point of
betraying Mr. Brown,

and she dies as it is
on the chance...

But how?

That is what we must find out!

In the meantime,
we must send for a doctor

But before we do,
is there anything

in this room that might be
of value to us?

Her safe.

She kept her jewels
and things there.

Key's in the locker.

She's in the point of leaving,
you remember.

She did burn some papers
of somekind or another

unfortunately she did some
thorough job of it.

- Anything?
- No, it's empty.

Empty!

That's number one.

Yes, Comrade Kramenin

Who is he Sir?

Well many believe him to be the
author of Russian revolution.

But, err, he didn't arrive
in this country till yesterday.

He was at the meeting Wednesday.

I'd swear to it.

Well, if he's part of
Mr. Brown's organization,

anything is possible.

Perhaps he is
Mr. Brown

Unfortunately, one of few facts
known as certain,

is that Mr. Brown
is no foreigner.

A traitor?

We've just won a war

Which some people would prefer
we hadn't won.

Now the 29th, you say?

Yes, Sir.

It gives us just over a week.

Well, we can deal with the
general strike menace.

But if the draft treaty turns up
we're done for.

England will be
plunged into anarchy.

Doctor Hall, I wonder
if you could tell me

are you acquainted with
Mrs. Vandemeyer?

I know her slightly.

I have reason to believe
that Mrs. Vandemeyer

once comitted a young relative
of hers to your charge.

Janet Vandemeyer, her niece.

When did she come to you?

Oh, as far I can remember, err,

June or July 1915

Was she a mental case?

She was perfectly sane,
if that's what you mean.

I understood from Mrs. Vandemeyer

That the girl had been with her,
on The Lusitania.

When that ill fated ship
was sunk.

And she has been in the state
of severe shock ever since.

What kind of shock?

Janet Vandemeyer is suffering
from a complete loss of memory.

What?

She remembers nothing?

Absolutely nothing.

Well maybe seeing someone
from backhome might

Oh! I'm sorry Mr. Hersheimmer,
I tought you understood.

Miss Vandemeyer
is no longer in my care.

When did she leave?

The same evening when
you fell off my drain pipe

A very urgent message arrived
from her aunt.

And the young lady and
a nurse who was in charge of her

left by the night train.

I remember now!

You said Nurse Edith
left with her patient.

My god,
we've been so near!

As I tought, the birds have flown

They stripped the house
in Soho and gone.

There's something
puzzles me.

When the mood changed,
when they tied me up,

Conrad said something about:
"a bit different from The Ritz".

But how could they have known?

Miss. Tuppence,
do young think I'll ever find Jane?

Of course you'll find her!

How long can you live
on dreams?

That's what I'm asking myself.

I have in mind to back to
the States right now.

You can't, we got to find Tommy.

Oh, I clearly forgot Tommy!

Miss Tuppence,
you mind if I ask you a question?

- Fire away.
- You and Beresford, what about it?

Tommy and I?
Well .. just good friends that's all.

But suppose we never
find him, and ...

And he's dead?

It's alright, say it.
I can face facts

Well,

And all this bussines fizzles out,
you could be kind of lonesome.

Well, I'll be alright.
I intend to marry, of course.

That is, if I can find anyone rich enough
to make it worth my hung wire

What kind of figure
do you have in mind?

Figure? You mean tall or short?

No, income.

What about me?

What about you?

I admire you immensely,
Miss Tuppence

Thank you very much, I...

I'm proposing to you.

Will you be my wife?

Oh I'm sorry I,
I couldn't...

Because of Beresford?

No, no, no!

No, it isn't that

Well, thank you very much
for all that, but ....

I'm afraid
I have to say no.

I'd be obliged

if you do me the favor
to think about it until tomorrow.

Intriguing request.

What else are friends for,
except to help one another.

As you helped me
many times, in the past

You're looking tired, Anthony

I just had the
Prime Minister on the phone

these are grave times

Six months ago general strike
would have seen inconceivable

Not now,
now is reality.

So your problem whatever it maybe,
may provide a little light relief.

What it is you're trying to find out?

Three weeks ago a man's body

was found near the docks
in New York.

Telegram for you, Miss.

For me?

Tommy!

Get me an ABC, Henry

Taxi is waiting, Miss

- Where should I tell him?
- Charing Cross

Excuse me.

Is Miss Cowley
in her room?

I'm sorry Sir,
Miss Cowley has just gone out

Beresford! My God!
Is it really you?

Why on earth shouldn't it be?

You were given out for dead.

- Who tought I was dead?
- Miss Tuppence.

She remembered the proverb about

"the good dying young" I suppose

yes, there must be a certain amount
of original sin in me

to have survived.

Anyway our mistress,
she's gone out it seems.

Shopping, I suppose

At lunch time,
doesn't sound like Tuppence.

I'd should like to know
where you've been all this time?

Look here,

Would you mind if
we discuss it over lunch?

I'm, err, rather hungry

Anything news.

Yes, the most shocking is
the talk with Sir James.

- Lost her memory?
- That's what the man said

Well that explains why they looked at me
so oddly, when I spoke of questioning her.

They didn't give you

any sort of idea
where Jane was?

Oh, I'm an ass, I know.

I ought to have
got it out of them.

But somehow, when I came around

all I think about was
that Kramenin wasn't there

Who's Kramenin?

Oh! Mr. Carter said he's the man
behind the Russian revolution.

But I think he's Mr. Brown's
spokeman.

Not his mastermind himself

More the master's voice.
If you know what I mean

Excuse me, Sir.

The young lady asked me
to tell you that she's gone away.

Gone away?

Yes Sir, she ordered a taxi.
Said Charing Cross.

Even asked me for an ABC.

When did she ask for an ABC?

When I gave her the telegram, Sir.

Telegram?

"Come at once mad house,
Ebury Yorkshire,

great developments".
Tommy.

- You didn't send it?
- Of course I didn't send it!

They've got her!

Damn, they got
Miss Tuppence!

Then we just got to have to get her back,
won't we?

- Beresford?
- Mmm?

I wasn't gonna tell you this, but

considering what happened
I think I should.

This morning I asked Miss Tuppence
to marry me.

I'd like to know before
I suggest anything of the kind

I have made clear

that in no way I want to
butt in between the two of you

Tuppence and I are pals.

That's all.

A girl always refuses

you once, doesn't she?
you know sort a convention.

Refuses?
Did you say refuses?

Yeah, didn't I say that?

Yeah, she just wrapped at a no
without any reason to it

Then she left me a note,

I found it when
I go upstairs to pack

What did she say in the note?

Here, I got it right here.
See it yourself

"Dear Julius: it's always best
to have things in black and white

I don't feel I can be bothered
to think of marriage until...

Tommy is found.

Let's leave it all then.
Yours affectionately Tuppence"

I thought I'd let you know

That I have my own reason
for wanting to find her.

Thank you.

- Julius?
- Mmm?

Henry said Tuppence told the taxi driver
to take her to Charing Cross.

Well...

Train to Yorkshire
leaves from King's Cross.

I don't think Miss Tuppence
has ever been near this place

She must have been.

This is the nut's house.

Maybe be a
caretaker of something.

Caretaker!
You gotta be kidding

Look around you,
who's been taking care of this place?

Well look at that dust,
it's pretty thick

There's no sign of a footmark.

Let's have a look around.

- It's Tuppence's.
- Are you sure?

Absolutely,
we found it together in the park.

Well that settles it.

someone must have seen her.

We'll raise hell and earth,
till we find her.

Do you realize we've been
here for two whole days.

We're no nearer to find her
and next sunday is the 29th?

We're gonna get her back.

I've got to get her before that

Her life won't worth anything
afterwards.

You need help,
a professional help?

I'm gonna do what we should have done,
the first time we found the brooch.

Go to Scotland Yard.

- What about Sir James?
- What about him?

You said Tuppence trusted him.

I didn't say I did.

Where did you get this clothes?
Where did you found them?

Let me handle this Beresford,
you're frightening the child.

It's okay, honey.

We just wanna know where
you found the clothes, that's all

Over there, by the rocks,
the sea brought them in

They were wet and sandy
i didn't think they belong to anyone

Was there anything else?

Are you sure?
No one's gonna be angry with you

There's something in this pocket.

The oil skin package.

The treaty.

Have you a knife Tommy?

Yes

With the compliments of Mr. Brown!

"Dear Beresford:
You and I have never met,

but I've heard a great deal about you

I have just heard from
my friend Carter.

the tragig news of
Miss Cowley's death

I wil not try to comfort you
with platitudes.

She was an unforgettable young woman
and will never be forgotten

Time will heal but
possibly a change of scene

might help it heal
more quickly.

I have bussines interest in Arizona.

Arizona?

And one ranch in particular
which needs a good man

Who might take over
as a manager.

If you are interested
come to see me.

James Peel Edgerton"

Dear Sir James:
Thank you for the letter

I apreciate the tought
that went behind it

But I'm afraid

I must stay here
until I've found....

Julius!

Julius!

Julius, look here old chap
I'm sorry...

Julius?

Ah, damn!

It was a photograph of Annette,

the girl who saved my life

Young man take my advise

Let others fight
this secret battle

It's bad enough that one young life
has been lost

it will be unforgivable
if there were two.

Accept my offer.
Go to Arizona,

concentrate on your own future.

Let those of us

like Carter and myself,
whose life is more than half over

worry about this country

Don't think I'm not grateful, sir.

But I must find out
what happened to Tuppence.

If she is ...
what they say about her is true.

Then ... that's something
that has to be avenged.

What about the telegram?

Telegram?

Carter said she received
a telegram,

the one that lured her away

I don't understand.

It just possible that
the telegram that you read,

was not the telegram that was sent.

Perhaps that's why Henry said
Tuppence told

the taxi driver to
take her to Charing Cross,

when logically
she should've said King's Cross.

Can one check something like that?

Some men have more power

outside the cabinet
than within.

It may take one hour,
or so.

I put him up
in the back strairs.

I hope I did right, sir

But he's the one that brought
message for Miss Cowley

and she isn't back.

And there's no one in
that Rita's flat,

and he's worried.

Will you let him in, Henry.

Oh, this arrived for you, Sir.

Thanks.

"Come at once Ashley Priors,
Gatehouse, Kent.

Great developments, Tommy.

Good luck. James Peel Edgerton"

Come in!

Hello!

- Albert, Sir.
- Albert.

You knew Miss Cowley?

She was gonna recruit me, Sir.

Recruit?

For the Secret Service, Sir.

The crook haven't got her, right sir?

I'm afraid they have, Albert.

In the underworld?

No, dash it all,
in this world

Now then, I need a good man
to rely on.

Do you think you can invent
a sick grandmother

or something, and
take a couple days off

- I'm your man, Sir!
- Excellent.

Now Henry, I'm gonna write
a couple of letters.

But I don't want them
to be delivered

until Albert and I
are safely out of the way.

I'm your man, Sir!

Dear Hersheimmer, I've tried
telephoning,, but you were out

something extraordinary
has happened.

I've been offered
a job in Arizona,

and in the present circumstances
I've decided to take it.

I leave immediately.
Good bye. Tommy Beresford"

Damn fool.

Oh yes, about that body
in New York,

couldn't get much, I'm afraid.

Some chap about 35,
poorly dressed,

face very badly disfigured.

Still hasn't been identified.

I could identify him.
I can't proof it, yet.

But I could identify him.

You're a devious animal!

Sometimes I wonder
why we get on so well.

Old school friendship
never die.

True!

As I felt that if anyone could

hunt down the elusive Mr. Brown,
it would be you.

And you, my friend, will be the
first to know, I promise you.

- Good bye!
- Good bye.

This arrived for you
by hand, Sir.

Thank you, Hudson

"Dear Mr. Carter, somethings turned up
that given me a jab.

I think I know
where the real Jane Finn is,

and what's more I've figured out
that Tuppence is no more drown than I am.

I'm going to try to find her

I even got an idea
where the papers are.

The lasts are only a guess, and maybe
I'm making an awful ass of myself.

But anyway I enclose it

in a sealed envelope.
For what it's worth,

I'm going to ask you, not to open it
until the very last moment -

- midnight of the 28th.

They're desperate to get hold
of the treaty, you see,

and if they tought that
the papers have been recovered by us,

Tuppence's life won't be
worth an hour purchase.

One last thing:

please have the house
at Soho watched,

day and night!

Yours,
Thomas Beresford.

Looks very quiet, sir.

Yes, too quiet.

I should have to draw
the enemy's fire.

You stay here, just watch!

Wish me luck!

Psst!
Good luck, Sir.

And never leave you ......

Now , go back

to whichever pub
you've just crawled out off.

And while they was
running you off

somebody opened the window
and chuck this out

it was wrapped
in a paperweight

"Tomorrow, at
the same time"

Albert did you see
who threw it?

I couldn't tell who it was, guv,
anyway I hadn't time because I replied.

You did what?

I scribbled a message, wrapped it round a paper
and chuck it back through the window.

What did it say this message of yours?

That they, whoever it was
could find us here at the inn.

Yours ill, Albert
could be the undoing of us.

He's here for you, Sir.

Take this to the gentleman
at the inn, he'll give you ten shillings

"Dear Tommy,
I knew it was you last night.

They take me away
this moring,

i heard something about
Wales, Hollyhill I think.

I'll drop this on the road,
if I have the chance.

Yours, Twopence.

- We found her, Sir!
- What about my ten shillings?

Here's a bob,
it was a very short note.

Thanks very much, Sir.

Anything the matter, Sir?

How do you spell Tuppence, Albert?

T U P P E N C E.

Yes, that's how she is spelt,
now look at this.

T W O P E N... that's not right
is it, sir?

Someone's made a mistake

and I know who.

This is an outrage,
you mean to kill me?

You needn't worry, Kremenin,
I'm not proposing to kill you.

Yet, if you reasonable, that is.

What do you want, money?

No no, I don't,
I want Jane Finn.

I've not known of whereabouts
of this Jane Finn.

You tell me now,
and I mean now

Where I can find her?

I dare not

You ask an impossiblility

Afraid eh, of whom?
Mr. Brown?

He would kill me.

I'm glad to hear it,
cos that makes two of us.

I'm gonna count to five.

And if you let me to pass 4
you needn't worry too much about Mr. Brown

One

Two

Three

- Four
- Oh no.. don't

i will do as you whish

Where she is?

At the Gate house, in Kent.

Now listen to me,

I'm gonna tell you this,
exactly what I want you to do

You're gonna drive straight to the house
and you're gonna ask for the girls

- I never agreed to...
- Now listen!

You're gonna ask for the girls and you sure
as hell you better make it good.

Now relax.

I'll tell you about the story of a man
I shot, when I was in Alaska

What are you doing here?

Bring down the girls at once

There's no time to loose

- Surely you know the plan?
- The plan has been changed!

We have been betrayed, the girls
at once, that's our only chance.

You have orders?
From him?

Should I be here otherwise?
Hurry!

Come on, move!

- Move!
- Please you don't have to

- Hold right there!
- Julius

Take it away, Miss Tuppence!

Move over, Kremenin

Hold it!

I said hold it!

Stop them, you fools!

Don't let them get away

Are you alright, Miss Tuppence?

Of course I am.

Where's Tommy?
And who is he?

Tommy is on his way to Arizona

He's doing what?

Tommy thought you'd turned up your toes...
(Note : Tommy tought she was dead)

Hang on everyone!

Leave it!

Let me present Mr. Kramenin

I persuaded him to accompany
in this trip and help.

They know I betrayed them

My life won't be preserved
one hour in this country

I advise you to make your exit
to Russia and fast!

Hold up, Miss Tuppence

Stop!

Stop!

Annette, are you alright?

Annette?
Is that what you call her?

It's her name, isn't it?

This is the real and original
Jane Finn you lookin' at

Let me out, it's me they're after.

Let me out and you'll be safe.

I say there's nothing wrong
with your memory

You've been fooling them around
all this time.

Well, you listen to me, cousin Jane

I've come all over here
to Europe, to try find you

and sure as hell
I'm not gonna back without you.

Is it left or
right, Julius?

Right.

- Sorry!
- Tommy!

Hello

Where the hell of you
came from, Beresford?

I was on the bushes by the hive,
hang on behind.

Couldn't let you know before,
with the pace you were going.

What a shot a lot of them

Now then you girls, get out.

out?

There's a station, just above there

You don't think you can fool them
by leaving the car

You and I aren't going to leave

You outta your mind, you can't
let the girls go off alone.

Take her with you, and
do just as I say.

Take the train to London,

and go straight to
Sir James Peel Edgerton.

You'll be safe with him

You're crazy

Jane stay where you are

Get out both of you or I'll shoot

Come on, it's alright

If Tommy's sure, he's sure.

What the hell?

Drive, Hersheimmer!

I want a few words
with you.

At first, well I had no suspicion

But on the boat to Holyhead
I began to get frightened

This woman,
Mrs. Vandemeyer

Rita

She tried to make friends with me,
there was ...

something about her
I just don't trust

And she's been near me
on The Lusitania

when Mr. Danvers
gave me the papers

I ripped open the oil skin package

and took out the treaty,
there were only two pages of it.

and slipped it between two
pages of a magazine

And in the end, I find myself
in the same railway carriage

with Mrs. Vandemeyer,
after all.

After a few moments
I began to feel uneasy,

so I decided to
leave the carriage.

As I tried to get out

I felt a terrific blow
on the back of my head.

When I came to,
I was lying on a bed

in a dirty squalored room,
with no windows,

and I could hear
two people talking.

One of them was
Mrs. Vandemeyer

They hadn't found
the papers yet,

and were speaking of torturing me
to find out where they were.

Suddenly something put the tought of

lost of memory in my head.

I opened my eyes and
started babling in French.

Mrs. Vandemeyer,

called to the man she'd been
speaking to.

Spoke to me in French,
he asked my name,

I said I didn't know,
that I couldn't remember a thing at all.

Suddenly he took hold of my wrist
and began twisting it,

I don't how long I could've got on,

but luckily, I fainted.

Mrs. Vandemeyer,
was sweet as honey to me.

She told me I'd been in shock.

and was very ill

then she left the room

I saw my coat lying on the chair

The magazine was still rolled up
in the pocket.

I got up
as sofly as I could,

Very gently I took hold of
one of the pictures in the room.

One of Marguerite
with her casket of jewels.

The back of the picture
was quite loose.

I took the treaty out of
the magazine,

and slipped it between the picture
and its back.

So the papers are still
in the back of that picture.

We must get there at once

- Tonight?
- Tomorrow may be too late.

Besides, by going tonight,
we have the chance

of capturing Mr. Brown.

I'm sure it is his plan
that we are to lead him,

and he imagines the risk is not great,
since he will enter in disguise of a friend

You know who Mr. Brown is,

Don't you?

I've been certain for sometimes.

Ever since the night of
Mrs. Vandemeyer's mysterious death

There we were,
up against the logical facts

Either she took the chlor herself
or else ...

Yes

It was administered in
the Brandy you gave her.

Only three people touched that brandy.

You, Miss Tuppence,
myself,

and one other.

Julius

What are you saying?
That Julius is Mr. Brown?

Julius, my cousin?

Not your cousin.

The man who calls himself
Julius Hersheimmer

is no relative of yours.

i don't believe you.

Oh the real Julius is set out
to look for you, that much is true.

But three weeks ago,

his body was found
in New York.

Shabbily dressed,

the face was disfigured,
to prevent identification.

Julius Hersheimmer
had ceased to exist

Mr. Brown took his place.

Upstairs.

No one has come to the house
so far,

the police are quite sure of that.

Anyone who attemps to enter after us,

will be arrested straight away.

First floor.

We got it, at last.

Yes.

Oh. we succeeded!

It was in this room that our
young friend

was confined for so long,
was it not?

The truth is still
in this room

You notice the absence of windows

And the thickness
of closed door?

Whatever took place here, would never
be heard by the outside world.

You scent danger,
Miss Tuppence.

So does Miss Finn?

You feel ...

as we all feel,

the presence of Mr. Brown.

In this house?

In this room.

You?

That's right Miss Tuppence,

I am Mr. Brown

You said just now
we have succeeded.

I have succeeded,
the draft treaty is mine,

and in two days time,
this country will be mine.

But that is madness.

Absolute power, is that
so mad a dream?

Many men have had that dream,

I shall be the first
to realize it.

You'll never get away with it.

People trust me, my dear.

You did,
your friend Tommy did.

The only one who didn't,
was the American

and he will soon be dealt with.

And us?

Neither of you will leave
this room alive.

Shall I tell you how it will be?

Sooner or later the police
will break in

and they will find three
victims of Mr. Brown.

Three, not two,
you understand?

Fortunately, the third
will not be dead, only wounded.

Will be able to describe the attacker
and wealth of detail.

The treaty of course, in the hand of
the assassin, Mr. Brown

Once you outwitted me

you will not do it again

And you either!

You!

Ave caesar, morituri te salutant
*Hail Caesar, we who are bout to die, salute you*

Beresfod, Beresfod,
please tell me.

When did you first guess me
as the villain?

Well, like you I suppose

when I realized if Mrs. Vandemeyer
hadn't committed suicide,

Only two people could have
killed her.

One was Sir James,
pillar of the establisment,

seemingly totally
above the suspicion,

and .... you,

about whom we knew very little.

Well we knew he's the third
richest man in America.

We knew he claimed to be.

Sorry Julius,

and then I found that photograph
of Annette in the drawer

and realized
she had to be Jane Finn,

even if you didn't notice yourself.

And then you said that
photograph

had been taken from you
by Inspector Brown.

Well, I was telling you
the truth, it had.

And how did you get it back again?

Believe it or not, I found it.

In the safe of Mrs. Vandemeyer's
bedroom.

Right.

I knew you were lying,
when you said you'd found nothing.

The one thing that
always puzzled me,

was how they linked me
with The Ritz.

Now as far as I was aware,
only three knew

Tuppence, Julius and Mr. Carter

it wasn't till after I got free

that I discovered that one
other person knew,

Sir James.

And it was immediately
after he'd been told,

that I was ordered to be killed.

I couldn't quite make a
decision:

Sir James or Julius.

Well, I had one big advantage
over you

i knew it wasn't me.

Yes. Well, I kept
an open mind

and left that note

about Arizona for you,

so that you thought
you had clear field

and went to see Sir James
and told him everything I knew.

Everything?

Except where I tought
the treaty was.

But when did you know
it wasn't Julius?

When I got the bogus note.

It was printed, not handwritten, but
it was really the signature that gave it away.

Good thinking, Tommy.

Well it's the right way
to spell it, isn't it?

T w o p e n c e,

but only someone who'd never seen
your signature

would have spelt it like that.

And Julius had seen it,
you wrote him a note once.

How do you know about that?

Well there's a lot I know,
that you don't know I know.

If you knew it wasn't Julius,

why did you hold him up
at gunpoint?

I knew that unless Sir James
was actually

caught in the act, so to speak,

Mr. Carter would never believe
half of it, on my words alone.

Yes, to my eternal shame
you're right.

The girls
had to lead Sir James to that house

and the Marguerite picture.

On the way up, I told Julius
the whole story.

As Beresford have said,
I would never believe

of Sir James Peel Edgerton
to be guilty

unless he was caught
in the act.

Well, he was an old friend,
a close friend,

but I didn't know
that he was also a mad man

and in this diary of his,
are all the details of the coup

that the courage of you
young people has averted,

to be no general strike now,
no revolutión,

though the country came
perilessly near it.

So...

I give you a toast!

To joint venture...

which has so just amply
justified itself...

by success.

Joint venture!

- Thank you!
- Thank you!

Rather fun, wasn't it?

Rather...

I like Julius.

You're not to marry him,
do you hear?

I forbid it, absolutely.
Do you understand?

He doesn't want to marry me

He really only asked me
out of kindness

- Oh really?
- It's quite true

He's head over heels in love with Jane!

I expect he's proposing
to her now

they'll do for each other
very nicely

Don't you think she's the loveliest
creature you've ever seen?

I dare say.

But I dare say you prefer
sterling worth

Oh...I

Dash it all, Tuppence you know

By the way, what will you do now?

As your uncle decided
to give you an allowance,

will you accept Carter's offer?

Or Julius' invitation to
work in America?

Oh I should stick
to the old chap, I think.

It's awfully good of him,
Hersheimmer.

Besides, I feel
more at home in London

I don't see
where I come in to it

I do.

Oh, Tuppence!

Dear old bean.
