done but hmm oh well that's for the

police no no you don't understand she

was murdered five years ago since then

the police of well they made no progress

at all five years in impotent aborted

years and nothing nothing that's why I

decided to fire him private detective

five years and you want me to find the

killer

oh no no I I know the killer is I want

you to prove it

yeah

somewhere

[Music]

somewhere

somewhere how to be exactly sure

five years almost of the day

so many things have changed

[Music]

a long time seems like yesterday it will

always seem like yesterday they said

that when one falls in love time stands

still perhaps that's true but it stands

still for tragedy as well as follow it

stem still when one loses such a

precious thing

I never married they dubbed me the

misogynist of the family the woman hater

the truth is women always scared me a

bit and then suddenly my brother and his

wife were both killed and I became a

parent with a woman of my own to care

for a child woman not someone to be

scared of someone to mold to watch grow

and blossom someone to love at last

they weren't him behind bars I want him

to pay for what he did

who mr. Tully Oh Peter Ingram

doesn't a dozen people in the whole town

will talk to him some of the young men

tried to beat him up but he's a powerful

man

what is Neeley bravado killer the brutal

killer walking the streets what did the

police say about him yeah well tell his

right was Ingram definitely no doubt

about it

well if you know that then why didn't

you I know it's one thing proving is

another isn't that right charlie

oh we pulled him into and out of the

murder held him Oh was it Charlie Matt

three days four yeah and then we had to

let him go I'm a weed you eat did he but

we had to let him go oh how do you know

he didn't know you know a lot of

circumstantial stuff timings opportunity

oh and he yeah he fancied her it worked

together dancer mama to the article

thing and he fancied her besides I mean

he was there any possible suspect it was

definitely him

yeah we had enough evidence to bring him

to trial he never know enough to

guarantee a conviction you bring him

under trial and they fine him not guilty

Megan never touch him again it's been

five years it seems to me you haven't

touched him at all now we couldn't take

the chance for one day one day some

vital little factor may pop up under

like what I keep doing it again mm-hmm

that's possible

that's so cold-blooded that's immoral

that's fact it's one of the facts are

law leaving I like seeing a murderer

walk free still till he's brought in

private help so maybe your shares all

the way oh maybe yeah we'll look miss

Baxter I'm not full enough to turn down

any kind of help from wherever even from

a woman I'll tell you what I'll do I'll

give you all the corporation you need

now these files are supposed to be

confidential matter if you want to

browse through them use yourself okay

you and anything that's nothing there

ask me house on the case

[Music]

detective she might turn up something

fresh on me that is going to turn up is

there no I mean her don't figure your

eyes practically fill out your cheeks

yeah good to hear the few detectives

like that around there

did it be a big improvement on you

George George George you're always

saying that and give my regards to your

wife

oh that's below the belt Charlie hey

you're just jealous

just because you're not married because

you haven't found miss right yet or

maybe you have oh you're not telling me

goodbye George

genuine English tea I live just on the

edge of the wood you know what actually

I left my card it's quite safe hardly

anyone comes this way anymore besides

it's only a few minutes

[Music]

yes I'd love to really compare thee to a

summers day thou art more lovely and

more temperate rough winds do shake the

Darling Buds of May and summers lease

hath all too short a date sometime too

hot the eye of heaven child and often is

his gold complexion dimmed and every

fair from fair sometime declines by

chance or nature's changing course

untrimmed but thy eternal summer are you

an actor it was once upon a time ten

years on it then I came to the

conclusion that I was not so I packed it

in and what do you do now I write Oh

what kind of writing oh this is that but

for the newspapers some drama criticism

I'm an authority on lousy actors having

being one myself yes I used to do a

regular column until left until they

found someone better milk and sugar and

no sugar

don't you find it a little spooky

sitting here all of them

I find it private but do sit down

so you don't do any acting at all no but

not even local am two things

Williams I had a couple of times the

Williams he owns the local bookshop and

runs the amateur dramatics society I've

done the whole thing for him once in a

while well I suppose that's not a bad

way of getting to meet people well girls

anyway oh well I have been one of two

occasions when it is due leave it

somebody leave it they don't run away by

now they always run away does this

happen often

not as often as it did there's small

tons of funny things they're closed like

a family well I yeah I had a bit of a

problem with this town a few years ago

and they won't let me forget it think

after all this time they get tired

I think they'd forget sometime why don't

you call the police

who every boss they have long gone by

now

thank you you said you had a problem

before what did you do well it's what

they think I did look do you mind if we

drop it nope

are you gonna be around here long no

just a few days I'd like to buy you

dinner there are a couple of places but

they don't still serve me well no

actually I'm gonna be pretty busy I see

thank you for the tea you're welcome I

really ought to be going now

Oh give your product oh no that's all

right please I know where it is that's

right and you know what I Adam if you

should change your mind

Hey

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

I'll be seeing you

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

got a bit jumpy very detective someone

was chasing me I was chasing you you I

lost you back there

I've gotta cross here to meet you oh why

didn't you call out because he might

have heard me

Ingram he had something in mind I didn't

want to put him off well thanks thanks a

lot so I'm here I near the first place

you had thought to be here and then

Ingram's and he didn't think I'd let you

walk into a killers house without

without police protection

did you are you I left my car down the

road a bit

you don't mind do you no no no mind how

long have you been here oh then you must

have seen who did it I did what well

somebody threw a rock through Ingram's

window Tim dinner or was it you know

damn well wasn't and if I had seen her

did he doubt it look the other way

anything that rubs Ingram's nerves Roy's

okay with me anything

don't make him break and give himself

away yes well that only works if you're

sure of one thing

yeah what's that that he's a man you

want

she really was pretty she was beautiful

now it's very odd the police reports are

so full of Ingram and his behavior it's

very little about her state of mind

where was she going that day she nearly

went for a walk no you found something

no it's just that she was a woman and so

am I see she wouldn't have been just

going for a walk cause it had been

raining but she did go for a walk along

walk down a muddy path that doesn't go

anywhere except to Ingram's cottage it's

a mile further on yes I know that I met

him today well I don't know see a woman

usually takes a walk like that if she

has something on her mind or if she's

going to meet her lover or she she was a

child well she was 17 years old

I would have known she would have told

me but she how would you have reacted

angry protective Janice I was

responsible for her

well mr. Tully that would have been a

perfectly normal reaction a father's

reaction

you've kept a room exactly as it was

haven't you may I see it

me please went over it with a fine-tooth

comb

well yes I know that not with a woman's

eye may I please

I leave you to it then please

we can't leave everything's you find it

yes of course I will

[Music]

sorry I'll come back and do that later

oh no please that's all right sure yes

tea I know mr. Tully likes it kept clean

insist clean and just as it always was I

hope you catch him who Ingram that's

what you're here for isn't it yes I hope

you'll catch him

she would seem lovely Miss Ellie you

know a well then who since she was that

I I was the last person to see her alive

last but one that is she came into the

kitchen she did to borrow a bear

what kind of bag what plastic thing like

you using the deep freeze and she

tripped out again it's a lovely morning

auntie Fitch she said auntie Fitch her

last words that's my name see I'm mrs.

Fitch but she always caught me on time a

lovely day but had Kniffin raining well

it had just stopped

but it was a lovely day to work poor

little thing she didn't know she was

going to have a knife plunged into a

ribs did she so she was really

especially happy that David why do you

know I had something to do with that

book though what book with the one she

had with her coddling it she was like it

was something special

hanging it'd be too good for that man

they don't even do that now she loved

taking a book with him I told you oh yes

I know I was just thinking loud Oh what

kind of book was it you're a Shakespeare

thing like that one yes exactly like

that one

but mrs. fish there wasn't any book

found on the body did you tell the

police about this Oh heart all of them

fat lot of attention they paid me not

important they said well no but it was

the important thing is for you to get

that Engram beyond bars

[Music]

stopped off for years oh yes yeah we are

it's what I call one of my perennials

children pass this exam Christmas a

birthday soon always welcome gift do you

keep a record of all yourself

you mean copies sold at a particular

period well yes so that we can restock

and how far back to your records go five

years maybe yes she did

she loved the theater got that from me

as person you would have to do no it's

just that I always found the fantasy

world of the theater infinitely

preferable to the realities that life

has to offer

so she only acted in amateur groups then

yes but she was good very good

we've talked of sending her to a drama

school what's her Rosalind good Rosalind

and as you like it she did play that

engine superbly yeah I'm prejudiced of

course but I thought it was the most

beautiful Rosalind you'd ever seen

for the most beautiful Rosalind I've

ever seen from the worst Oberon ever did

you give her that book well somebody did

and you know what I found out the day

before she died the bookshop sold a book

just like that of Midsummer Night's

Dream I think that Annabella bought that

book to give to someone - overall the

worst Oberon ever mr. Tully I think that

Oberon murdered your niece

Ingram was an actor mr. Ingram Jodi

Baxter yes is that dinner invitation

still open

mr. Englund mr. Ingram Oh a detective

[Music]

who told you I still have some friends

left Williams called he told me you'd

been snooping around a bookshop I'm

going to bleed to death

hold it there

Oh give me that

don't waste any more of it glass why did

you come here tonight what else can I

tell did you ever play the classics hmm

the classics Shakespeare yes of course

they react us sooner or later night

stream what the dream did you ever play

that yes

Oprah no yes a couple of times I suppose

you weren't the worst Oberon ever what

killed Annabella that's odd

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

Baxter found something mm-hmm

what do you think this is makes the

change from the usual heart and arrow

and this the cranny is right and

sinister I'm sorry

haven't you read Shakespeare played it

once when I was a kid at school hmm

still looking for a vital clue no chance

we had the best forensics men in the

country oh why are you here I thought

I'd take a country walk no I don't think

you're right I thought I'd wander and

recreate you never know what happened to

your face

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

reasons but mainly cuz I'm a fraud

I see you'll hire the wrong jbaxter it's

my husband who's the detective not me

mr. Tully hmm

I know you know mm-hmm I told you dead

Baxter was highly recommended to me when

it turned out to be you I naturally

checked back I'm sorry well I'm

satisfied I want you on the case thank

you

oh I'm so sorry

you've done well so far

nothing concrete of course but

looking at it with the woman's eye I

believe who said perhaps that's what was

always wondered

there has to be one thing he must have

made one mistake

perhaps it needs wounds I had to

discover it

dad

you can't possibly drive back to your

hotel stay here

you can have anabella's room

[Music]

I know a bank where the wild thyme blows

where oxlips and the nodding violet

grows quite over canopy with luscious

vine with sweet musk-roses and eglantine

[Music]

there sleeps titania

[Music]

[Music]

go to sleep

[Music]

this charming Spencer

there's not you uncle - is it do you

need something

no no

on her birthday come on II know it suits

you there's cuff the bruise I like my

women with a little imperfection have

such a send them all over to meet Ingram

you're still not bringing charges then

no well maybe there's one or two I might

like to bring against you yeah devoting

evidence oh please

book was up there for anyone to see your

men obviously overlooked it anyway it's

not evidence of anything isn't it

Ingram's an actor well he's not

necessarily a bad one it's the worst

Oberon ever all right how about fraud

then you let mr. Tommy hidden to

thinking you're did he taped no I

already told mr. tell you the truth I

offered to give him his retainer back

ask him it's true

is he a young lady or playing with fire

now you play with fire you end up burnt

to a crisp mornings are done good

morning

I'm sorry he arrived started talking now

perhaps I told him too much

it's not your fault yes phone call sir

me but miss Baxter it's from him from

that man Ingram as I want to thank you

well obviously you didn't say anything

about what happened the other night well

nobody's been here I want to thank you

that's all

no don't hang up listen what you said

that night

the worst Oberon ever was that important

or just because I've heard that

expression before and I've remembered

where Williams at the bookshop he burns

the amateur society has done for years

he must have seen some of the worst dope

you can today at Sunday hello

[Music]

Williams

mr. Williams

[Music]

mr. Williams

[Music]

[Music]

well you seem to attract violence the

doc says injures are consistent with a

fall down the stairs a chop on the neck

neck sweating karate do you are being

very extra when you got that bruise on

your face way so it's an accident that's

the first opinion the doc seemed pretty

sure well what a convenient accident why

she didn't have time to talk to him

first

what about anyway Oberon

well that's stuff in the book yes why

not Williams had an amateur theatre

group for years he probably would have

remembered the worst Oberon ever how did

you know that I prefer not to say Ingram

he tell you that

Hey then maybe Williams didn't fall down

the stairs why what's going on that

sudden death accidental Williams yeah

maybe my Sherlock Holmes here I found

him what the hell are you doing here

anyway I was just passing by saw the car

what happened your tread fell broke his

neck according to the doctor poor old

Williams Juro Williams come on you fell

the back of his hand a few times so did

you every single job particular didn't

he he was gave you the lowest marks for

everything

Williams taught school here till retired

took this place he was miserable he was

vicious meant sensitive is one of the

few still talk to Ingram two of a kind

no miss Baxter there's no need for you

to hang around I've in touch with you

later

well now you hear Charlie can give me a

hand I wanna take a look upstairs mr.

tally I know about Williams I can't say

I ever liked him he was too close to

Ingram for that but I'm sorry it was an

awful accident if it was an accident you

mean the police have found something to

suggest it wasn't no

I have been full of thoughts of

vengeance

I have incubated hate for so long that's

why I came to you but this last few days

I've I've come to realize that

eventually one must forget keep picking

at an old wound and it never heals

it just goes I'm hurting I don't want

you to think I'm ungrateful I'm very

grateful you want me to leave yes

all right

tomorrow Holly tomorrow

[Music]

I'm sorry I misjudged Jude no you're

open to trap him Ingram that's why you

talked to him yes you'd have to speak to

him lead him astray wait for the moment

when he makes that fatal lip and mind

you I told him when he first brought her

here me a child told him be heartache at

the end of it not right for a bachelor

to be bringing up a young girl no not

right at all

now if he'd married found himself a good

wholesome woman someone nearer his own

age

I told him

[Music]

[Music]

see if you're good proving room did ya

never said mr. tulley's mind at rest

then perhaps he'd start looking but

seeing his way clear

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

it lies in you why should titania cross

her Oberon I do but beg a little

changeling boy to be my henchman why

should titania cross her Oberon

see I do oh yes miss Baxter

speaking what can I do for you

I just took something out on the autopsy

report I'm Annabella Talley could have

it up for me I don't have to look I know

that one backwards

what do you under no well wasn't there

something about dirt or earth being

found under her fingernails

yes Earth was found under the nails of

both hands why but it was established

she was attacked from a standing

position and then fell onto her back

right yes all right I'm just following a

hunch one more question

well that was yesterday but why hello

what's your about now don't know it

doesn't make sense nothing

see you later

mr. Tully

I think I'm about to earn that fee and

all because of a plastic bag yes you see

Anabella bought a book to give to

someone right and then she put it in a

plastic bag now why not paper in a

ribbon because she was going to hide it

bury it mr. Tully out in the woods in a

place said only she and Oberon would

know about

believe me mr. Tully a young girl in

love would do that kind of thing I bet

you that book is still there with her

inscription on the Flyleaf and his name

the killer's name mr. Tully I'm gonna

find out that wood is two miles wide it

could be anywhere oh no there's only one

place that it could be this loam this

rough cast and this stone does show mr.

Tully for a theater buff you don't know

too much about Shakespeare the wall I'm

talking about the wall mr. Tully through

which the lovers did whisper often and

very secretly

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

you're clever very clever

I often worried about that dirt under

her fingernails

you the worst Oberon yeah but don't

forget the ever well it was never did

just ten years old I was and he leaned

on me shouldn't have told her shouldn't

have had a wife and kids she knew that

you could have come out to kill my

chances of promotion

she knew that too kosha Smith look I'm

sorry
