00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,360
say, I want to tell you about a 
little present I've got for you.

11
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:42,960
Uh huh. 
A present.

00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,960

And now for our weekly visit 

26
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,120
with the genial Doctor Watson. 
Good evening, Doctor. 

27
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,120
Good evening, Mr. Foreman, come 
in and settle yourself. 

28
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,800
Down, thank you. 
You're looking particularly 

29
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,240
comfortable tonight, Doctor. 
Feet up on the sofa and the 

30
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,320
puppy's asleep on your lap. 
Yes, my boy. 

31
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,760
The three of us went for a long 
walk on the beach this 

32
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,200
afternoon. 
Monty and Winnie had a running 

33
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,000
battle with the seagulls. 
In consequence, they've been 

34
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,800
fast asleep ever since we got 
home. 

35
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,360
Oh, I hope you're not too tired,
Doctor. 

36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,800
I'm counting on a new Sherlock 
Holmes story, you know. 

37
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,520
No, no. 
No, I'm all ready for you, Mr. 

38
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,520
Foreman. 
In fact, I was going through my 

39
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,760
notes on the case just before 
you arrived. 

40
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,840
Well, last week you told us it 
concerned a strange society who 

41
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,320
held their meetings in an 
underground vault of a furniture

42
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,920
warehouse. 
Yeah, that's right my boy. 

43
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:25,680
Now down with it. 
No, no, no, no. 

44
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,920
The story really began 1 stormy 
November night in 18187. 

45
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,760
I was married at the time and 
living away from Baker Street. 

46
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,440
On this night in question my 
wife had already gone to bed and

47
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,080
I was nodding in front of the 
fire over one of Clark Russell's

48
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,400
fine sea stories and had a very 
tiring day. 

49
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,880
I remember it was about the hour
that a man gives his first yawn 

50
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:53,200
and glances at the clock when 
suddenly my front doorbell 

51
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,800
jangled discordantly. 
Oh, our servant Edna had gone up

52
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,920
to bed, so I crossed to the 
window and opened it. 

53
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:08,040
It was very dark, but I could 
just see the outline of a figure

54
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,480
standing on my doorstep. 
It looked like a woman. 

55
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,120
Suddenly, a cultivated voice 
called up to me. 

56
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:14,600
Is. 
The Doctor. 

57
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,280
In Yes Madam, I'm the Doctor 
then. 

58
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,800
Please come at once. 
He's the doctor of life and 

59
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,440
death. 
I have a carriage waiting. 

60
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,280
All right, all right. 
I'll, I'll be down immediately. 

61
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,720
I closed the window, scribbled a
note to my wife, grabbed my coat

62
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,880
and hat and my bag, and a few 
minutes later I stepped out of 

63
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,080
the front door and closed it 
behind me. 

64
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,720
Carriage was standing at the 
curb, but I couldn't see any 

65
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,240
trace of the lady who'd called 
me. 

66
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,800
The only person insight was an 
old and impulsive look at bigger

67
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,520
woman dressed in rags and 
tatters. 

68
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:55,880
After a moment of bewilderment, 
I spoke a good woman. 

69
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,280
Did you see a lady leave here a 
moment ago? 

70
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,760
No doubt that she didn't leave. 
She's still waiting for you. 

71
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,200
Oh, forgive me, Madam, but 
cursing order. 

72
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,400
I thought you were a beggar 
woman. 

73
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,000
There is no time to discuss that
now. 

74
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,400
Please get in this carriage. 
Where's the driver? 

75
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,720
I'm going to drive, please. 
Get in only business. 

76
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,320
Are you sure that you can handle
those horses, Madam? 

77
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,760
Of course I. 
Can I wish you'd tell me the way

78
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:29,960
you're you're driving? 
Ma'am, please. 

79
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:49,600
Don't ask me any more. 
Questions, Frank. 

80
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,960
Heavens, we've finally reached 
our destination. 

81
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,120
Must have driven halfway across 
London. 

82
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,440
Oh, hello. 
Hello. 

83
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,400
Must be somewhere down near the 
river. 

84
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,160
No dwelling places here. 
Nothing but enormous warehouses.

85
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,040
Why have we stopped here, Madam?
This. 

86
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,240
Is where we're going. 
Please probably don't be stiff. 

87
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,520
I wish you'd tell me where 
you're taking, man. 

88
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,920
We have a a club here in the 
basement. 

89
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:20,680
You'll see for yourself in a 
moment. 

90
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,480
A very solid looking door. 
How do you propose to get past 

91
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:26,440
it? 
I'll show you. 

92
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,240
Good Lord, must be a very secret
club of yours, Madam. 

93
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,200
It is Doctor. 
Oh, Knox. 

94
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,360
Number. 
Seven, give the password. 

95
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,560
To the lanterns. 
Who may enter? 

96
00:05:54,680 --> 00:06:05,400
Follow me, doctor. 
Madam, I do wish you'd tell me 

97
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,200
where you're taking me. 
This looks like the entrance to 

98
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,440
an opium dear. 
Nora, the Thieves. 

99
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,320
Kitchen. 
Don't worry doctor, you're in no

100
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:19,760
danger there. 
Does that look like a thieves 

101
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,000
kitchen? 
Scott, I don't believe my eyes. 

102
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,000
Like seriously furnished room. 
What a strange collection of 

103
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,680
people. 
Some look like beggars, others 

104
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:34,480
in full evening dress. 
Amazing. #7 Who is this man? 

105
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,960
He's a. 
Doctor, I went to fetch him. 

106
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,640
I thought I said there would 
have been no strangers in here. 

107
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,040
Look. 
Here, my good man, I've been 

108
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,080
extremely patient. 
My temper's beginning to wear a 

109
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,000
little thin. 
Either let me see your patient 

110
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,360
at once, or show me out. 
My time's valuable and I don't 

111
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:47,240
propose to waste. 
It. 

112
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,760
I'm sorry, doctor, where is 
Julian? 

113
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,520
He's in the backroom, and if you
know what's good for you, 

114
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,760
Doctor, whatever you call 
yourself, you'll forget 

115
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,280
everything you see in here. 
Stop threatening me Sir, I'm not

116
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:00,320
the least interested in your 
blasted club. 

117
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:09,880
Just take me to the patient. 
This is the man we want you to 

118
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,240
examine. 
Doctor, what happened? 

119
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:13,840
He. 
Fell down the stairs leading 

120
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,360
into the club room well. 
Why'd you move him? 

121
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,360
We wanted him to be comfortable.
It's the worst. 

122
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,320
Thing in the world you could 
have done never, never move a 

123
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,480
person with an injured skull is.
He is he going to be all right, 

124
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,800
Doctor? 
No, Madam, I'm afraid he isn't. 

125
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,400
His neck's broken. 
He's dead. 

126
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:30,640
Huh. 
Try again. 

127
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,840
Dead. 
I'm sure of that, Doctor of. 

128
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,040
Course, I'm sure of it, my good 
man. 

129
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,720
I'm afraid you need an 
undertaker, not a doctor. 

130
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:44,680
We must tell the others. 
I quiet everybody. 

131
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,120
Quiet, quiet. 
Julian is dead. 

132
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,280
Julian dead. 
Oh, this is terrible. 

133
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,440
Who's this man? 
He's a doctor. 

134
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,520
I'd. 
Better get him out of here at 

135
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,800
once. 
We don't want any strangers 

136
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,080
nosing about. 
That's right though. 

137
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,360
Shouldn't have bother me. 
Anyway, just a minute, just a 

138
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,960
minute I show you ladies and 
gentlemen, I have the slightest 

139
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,160
desire to stay here 1 moment 
longer. 

140
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,280
If you direct me to the door 
again Madam, I'll try to find a 

141
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,120
cab myself in this God forsaken 
district and go. 

142
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,680
Home. 
Show him out and give him his 

143
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:14,400
money. 
Follow me please. 

144
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:20,320
I'm delighted to. 
Do you mind if I don't drive you

145
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,840
home, doctor? 
Well no, I should prefer it. 

146
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,880
My nerves aren't in the best of 
shape. 

147
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,080
You mustn't be angry with me, 
Doctor, Please. 

148
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,000
Leaving again #7. 
No, but this gentleman is. 

149
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:32,400
Will you see if you can find a 
cab? 

150
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,240
For him to whom shall I send in 
my bill, Madam? 

151
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,360
Here's a £5 note that should 
cover your time and trouble. 

152
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:39,440
Shouldn't. 
It No, no, no, no. 

153
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,919
It's far too much, Madam. 
No, doctor, it's late at night 

154
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:43,760
and it hasn't been a very 
pleasant case for you. 

155
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,920
Please take it. 
Kind of. 

156
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,200
You're very jealous indeed. 
But by the way, how did you 

157
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,480
happen to to come to me in the 
first place? 

158
00:08:51,680 --> 00:08:53,960
I was driving about looking for 
a doctor and a policeman 

159
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,240
directed me to your house. 
Oh. 

160
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,520
I see I have. 
Found a cab. 

161
00:08:57,560 --> 00:08:59,320
For you. 
Thank you, my man, Thank you. 

162
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,840
Oh. 
Doctor, may I come round in the 

163
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,320
morning for a death certificate?
Of course, of course, you 

164
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,520
remember my address. 
Yes, but I don't know your name,

165
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,280
Watson. 
Doctor Watson. 

166
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:13,240
Doctor Watson. 
Not, not the Doctor Watson who's

167
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:18,560
associated with Sherlock Holmes.
That is that you know of me. 

168
00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:20,680
Good. 
Night Doctor, and please forget 

169
00:09:20,680 --> 00:09:44,880
about everything you've seen. 
Well, by my soul, what an 

170
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,800
amazing business. 
Holmes will be interested to 

171
00:09:47,800 --> 00:10:01,400
hear about this. 
And that's the way it was, 

172
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,160
Holmes. 
One of the most curious 

173
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,800
adventures I ever had without. 
You interesting, Watson, you say

174
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,880
this underground cellar was 
luxuriously furnished. 

175
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,400
Yes, and the people there were 
an amazing mixture. 

176
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,520
Some were in rags and some in 
evening dress. 

177
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,640
Like the nursery rhyme, some in 
rags and some in tags and some 

178
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:17,280
in belted. 
Gowns. 

179
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,840
Exactly. 
Even the feeling that I was 

180
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,440
taking part in a story out of 
the Arabian Nights. 

181
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,640
I must say though, I was pretty 
angry at the time. 

182
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,360
However, after a good night's 
roaster, I feel quite 

183
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,920
differently this morning. 
I thought I'd just drop round 

184
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,960
and tell you all about it. 
Glad you did, my dear fellow. 

185
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,800
It would be interesting to see 
if any repercussions of your 

186
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,440
strange adventure reachers. 
Oh. 

187
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,120
I doubted the woman seemed 
frightened to death when I 

188
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,120
mentioned your. 
Name. 

189
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,720
We shall see. 
Meanwhile, I'm expecting a 

190
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,240
client. 
You're not too busy. 

191
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,920
Perhaps you can stay. 
No, doctor very much who is. 

192
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,960
It you know Telegram will tell 
you much more than I can. 

193
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:54,560
Arrived an hour ago. 
Let's have a look be at your 

194
00:10:54,560 --> 00:10:58,760
lodgings this morning to discuss
our problem. 

195
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:05,240
Signed AMS put the high handed 
message be at your lodging. 

196
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:10,800
So please, I suppose AMS stands.
For I was just trying with that 

197
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,040
problem when you arrived. 
Could it be the American 

198
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:15,240
Medical? 
School. 

199
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,120
No, no, there's no such body. 
It's the American Medical 

200
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,080
Association. 
The tone of the message inclines

201
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,960
me to believe that the A stands 
for amateur. 

202
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,600
Very possible amateur masker 
society. 

203
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:34,200
For the amateur murderers, that 
would be a nice thought, 

204
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,720
wouldn't it? 
That is their representative 

205
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,880
now, no doubt to save us further
guesswork. 

206
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,960
Holmes, it looks like the same 
carriage that I drove in last 

207
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,960
night. 
The girl standing on your 

208
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,200
doorstep, The height of fashion.
This is Hudson's learning her 

209
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:48,840
in. 
Splendid. 

210
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,000
It seems that we have not heard 
the end of your adventure. 

211
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,600
Go and meet the lady at the top 
of the stairs. 

212
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,320
Will you watch up and say Missus
Hudson's legs Right? 

213
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:56,240
You are, huh? 
Thank you. 

214
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,120
Thank you. 
All right. 

215
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,240
Come in, Madam. 
Want to come in? 

216
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:10,160
Thank you, Doctor Watson. 
It's your service, Madam. 

217
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,800
Won't you want us down? 
I'm Lady Dorothy Brownlee. 

218
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,600
It's your voice. 
You're the lady who fetched me 

219
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,360
last night, dressed up as as a 
beggar woman. 

220
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,920
Yes, I am Doctor Watson. 
Forgive me for being so 

221
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,920
mysterious at the time. 
Doubtless you have come to 

222
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,680
consult me regarding last 
night's unfortunate accident at 

223
00:12:27,680 --> 00:12:29,480
the Amateur Mendicant Society. 
How? 

224
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,200
Did you know what the initial 
stood for, Mr. Holmes? 

225
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,560
Well, after hearing Doctor 
Watson's story of last night's 

226
00:12:34,560 --> 00:12:37,680
happenings, the connotation 
seemed obvious. 

227
00:12:37,680 --> 00:12:38,920
Am I right? 
Perfectly. 

228
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,680
Last night when Doctor Watson 
told us Julian was dead, we 

229
00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:45,160
thought it was an accident. 
And now you think it is a 

230
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,880
murder? 
Lady Bramley, if you expect my 

231
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,640
help, there must be no more 
mystery. 

232
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,040
Just what is this amateur 
mendicant society? 

233
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,120
I'm afraid it'll be a little 
hard for you to understand our 

234
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,320
motives, but a group of people, 
rather wealthy people I suppose,

235
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,240
who find pleasure in 
deliberately leading a steamy 

236
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,080
life disguised as beggars. 
We used the basement that you 

237
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,800
were in last night after as our 
headquarters. 

238
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,040
We keep our beggars closed there
and change out of them before we

239
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,800
go home. 
Fantastic idea. 

240
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,600
What? 
A futile worth this way of 

241
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,720
spending your leisure time, Lady
Brown I. 

242
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,320
Suppose it must seem so, Mr. 
Holmes, but we're curious to 

243
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,120
learn how the other half lives. 
Of course, there's a certain 

244
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,200
thrill in rubbing shoulders with
the police. 

245
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,720
At least we do some good. 
Indeed, I should be interested 

246
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,040
to learn how all. 
The money we make as beggars we 

247
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,920
give to charity. 
Oh, do you really? 

248
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,800
And you feel that this gesture 
on your part absolves you from 

249
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,320
any responsibility to the real 
beggars whose livelihood you're 

250
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,960
impairing? 
I hadn't. 

251
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,160
Thought of it just like this, 
No? 

252
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,680
Then I suppose you won't want to
help. 

253
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:51,880
Us. 
Oh, that's quite another matter,

254
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,600
Madam. 
As a professional detective, I 

255
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,600
cannot afford to be a moralist. 
Yes, I will investigate this 

256
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,600
case for you, though I warn you 
my fee will be an extremely high

257
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,280
one. 
Money isn't important, Mr. 

258
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,040
Holmes, as long as we can solve 
Julian's death without bringing 

259
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,960
the police into the. 
King Lady Barnley, Who is the 

260
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,960
dead man? 
The man you refer to as Julian. 

261
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,400
Julian Trevor, the poet. 
He was the one who started out 

262
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,040
the time, yes. 
I think I've read some of his 

263
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:15,920
work. 
Decadent. 

264
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,960
Distinctly decadent. 
What makes you think that he was

265
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,120
murdered? 
Lenny Branagh. 

266
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,160
Larthy, who left last night. 
Doctor Watson. 

267
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,680
It was a terrible scene. 
You remember Sydney Hold? 

268
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,600
Was he the big fellow who was so
unpleasant to? 

269
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:28,480
Him. 
Yes, that's the one. 

270
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,160
Do I remember him? 
He said that he saw Lord Cecil 

271
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,360
deliberately tripped Julian as 
he came to the head of the 

272
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,640
staircase. 
Oh, Lord Cecil being. 

273
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,240
Lord Cecil Dylan for the son of 
the early Bishop. 

274
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,760
There was a bitter argument. 
Cecil accused Sydney of doing 

275
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,920
the same thing. 
Then they had a dreadful fight. 

276
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,520
They'd ended up with Cecil 
threatening to go to the police.

277
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:49,960
So that's when we decided to 
send a telegram to you. 

278
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,680
Oh yes, yes, I see. 
So the proof of murder depends 

279
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:58,040
on such flimsy evidence as to 
whether the dead man fell or, 

280
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,720
well, should we say was pushed. 
Seems like Mr. Holmes. 

281
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,600
Even though you don't approve, 
please help us, won't you? 

282
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,240
Yes, Lady Bramley, I will. 
Will you come back with me now 

283
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,760
to our headquarters? 
I shall join you within the 

284
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,000
hour. 
In the meantime, my old friend 

285
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,280
Doctor Watson can go with you at
home. 

286
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,240
What can I do without you? 
You know my method told JET. 

287
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,920
Act accordingly. 
Very well, Mr. Holmes, but you 

288
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,040
promise you'll be there? 
I promise you that I will be 

289
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,840
there, Madam. 
Thank you so much, Mr. Holmes. 

290
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,400
We'll be expecting you. 
Come on. 

291
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,440
Well, I'll I'll just get my hat 
and coat. 

292
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,040
Holmes, what do you want to? 
Go with her and ask no more 

293
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,280
questions. 
I will join you within the hour.

294
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,560
There's a glint in your eye. 
I don't think you you believe 

295
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,160
her story. 
Of course I don't watch it. 

296
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,440
Well, then what? 
And go with her, old fellow, and

297
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,760
keep your wits about you, the 
games afoot. 

298
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,200
The story of the Amateur 
Mendicant Society will continue 

299
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,400
in just a few seconds, time I'd 
like to use to remind you that 

300
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,280
you're really missing something 
until you try having wine with 

301
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,440
your dinner, and I mean a Petri 
wine, let's say a Petri 

302
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,440
California Burgundy or a Petri 
California so turn. 

303
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,920
Both wines are just made to make
good food taste better. 

304
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,800
If you like a red wine, try 
Petri Burgundy. 

305
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,000
Try it with hamburger, with 
Stew, with any meat or meat 

306
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,840
dish. 
And if you like a delicious 

307
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,320
white wine, a wine that'll make 
chicken taste better than ever, 

308
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,920
try a well chilled Petri. 
So turn with food. 

309
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,920
Nothing can take the place of a 
good pet free wine. 

310
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,320
And now back to tonight's new 
Sherlock Holmes adventure. 

311
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,640
The Amateur Mendicant Society, A
group of wealthy eccentrics who 

312
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,160
pose as beggars, have come to 
Sherlock Holmes and Doctor 

313
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,200
Watson with a problem. 
One of their members has 

314
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,120
apparently been murdered and the
famous pair have been asked to 

315
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,160
investigate the killing. 
As we rejoin our story, Doctor 

316
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,520
Watson, still awaiting the 
arrival of the great detective, 

317
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,080
is cross questioning 3 of the 
members at the headquarters of 

318
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,080
this unusual. 
Society that I don't find your 

319
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,160
stories very convincing. 
Don't you now? 

320
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:09,000
Well, then, suppose you stop 
asking questions until Sherlock 

321
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,280
Holmes gets here. 
He's the man we've engaged to 

322
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,400
settle this business, not you. 
We're paying for his services, 

323
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,160
not those of his assistant. 
Mr. Holmes asked me to conduct 

324
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:19,880
this preliminary investigation, 
My good man. 

325
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,880
I'm perfectly familiar with his 
methods, so keep a civil tongue 

326
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,440
in your head if you want us to 
continue with this case. 

327
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,040
I'm not answering any more 
questions till he gets here. 

328
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,720
Stop Fuller, Lord Cecil, you say
that you saw Holt deliberate 

329
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,400
trip the dead man as he came 
down the stairs last night. 

330
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,520
Yes, I did well. 
Where were you standing Sir at? 

331
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,320
The head of the staircase, Holt,
was beside me, and as Julian 

332
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,600
came by, he deliberately, Please
excuse me #11 excuse me, what is

333
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,080
it? 
There is a strange man. 

334
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,640
Just come in. 
He is dressed as you when you 

335
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,120
work. 
But I do not. 

336
00:17:52,120 --> 00:17:55,160
Remember to have seen him here 
before he speak. 

337
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,600
Very rough. 
Did he get the correct signal? 

338
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,880
Yes, and the password. 
He must be a new member. 

339
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,240
I suppose we better see him 
bring him in. 

340
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,040
Bad time for him to come here. 
Can't find it This way please. 

341
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,240
Call me. 
Nice place you got here. 

342
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,400
Yeah, well, not right. 
Don't you do yourselves. 

343
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,840
Prayer, don't you? 
Who are you and how did you get 

344
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,040
in here? 
I'll give it a signal and the 

345
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,000
password just like Julian told 
me too are. 

346
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,120
You a friend of Julian. 
Of course I am. 

347
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:21,920
You're coming to meet him here 
to die. 

348
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,440
Who are you really are? 
We all friends here. 

349
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,400
Yes, you can talk freely. 
And permit me to introduce 

350
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,880
myself. 
I am Don Luis Jose Fernando de 

351
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,440
Los Toles at your service. 
Why? 

352
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,880
Why do you want to join us when?
Julian, tell me about. 

353
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,800
It well, it. 
Tickled my how you say my funny 

354
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,920
one. 
It is a so charming idea not to 

355
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,160
see another was of Mendicothy I.
Suppose he's. 

356
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,960
All right, big. 
Horse, I'm all right now. 

357
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,240
Where is Julian? 
Please he will vouch for me. 

358
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,280
He's in the other room. 
They had an accident. 

359
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,160
An accident, not the bad one, I 
hope. 

360
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,200
A very bad one, Doctor Watson. 
You better take him in there and

361
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,800
break the news to him. 
Follow me, Sir. 

362
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,000
This is terrible. 
Please tell me what happened, 

363
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,320
Doctor. 
I'm afraid you must. 

364
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,000
Betray yourself for the shock, 
Sir. 

365
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,520
Your friend is dead. 
Dead. 

366
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,200
His neck was broken last night 
in some brawl. 

367
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,160
Yes, Except that I do. 
Believe it was an accident. 

368
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:29,120
What's in Holmes but not? 
Quietly enough, Mr. Sherlock 

369
00:19:29,120 --> 00:19:31,800
Holmes. 
Come on, come back to the others

370
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,320
and let all take a look at you. 
Come on, get moving, both of 

371
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:35,440
you. 
This isn't a pop gun in my 

372
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:36,600
hands. 
Sorry, Holmes. 

373
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:37,840
Give the whole. 
Thing away, it's all. 

374
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,920
Right, old chap. 
Oh, Cecil. 

375
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,320
Dorothy, come here. 
I want you to take a look at the

376
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,600
great Sherlock Holmes walked 
into our trap just like any 

377
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,040
stupid policeman. 
Now I had to. 

378
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,480
Dress up to do it though, Mr. 
Holmes. 

379
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,560
We were waiting for you here 
anyway, you know, I was well 

380
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:53,520
aware. 
Of that Mister Holt. 

381
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,920
You see, I knew I was walking 
into a trap. 

382
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,840
How did you know that? 
Mr. Holmes, Lady Brownlee. 

383
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,720
The story you brought to us 
today was obviously a false one,

384
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,960
just as there is no amateur in 
mendicant society. 

385
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,480
Who are they, Holmes? 
Go ahead, Mr. Holmes, tell him. 

386
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,560
Let's see how much you really do
now. 

387
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,280
Why should I tell you what you 
already know? 

388
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,240
One talk. 
If you know what's good for you,

389
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,120
you're so. 
Persuasive, aren't you, Mr. 

390
00:20:16,120 --> 00:20:18,760
Holt? 
Very well, undoubtedly Julian 

391
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,440
Trevor's death last night was an
accident. 

392
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,120
You fetched the doctor, Lady 
Brownlee, a very natural move, 

393
00:20:23,120 --> 00:20:26,480
and later discovered that the 
doctor in question was the old 

394
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,760
friend of Sherlock Holmes. 
We're all afraid that I would 

395
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,800
become interested in your 
unusual society. 

396
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,680
And so you invented that very 
thin story about the accident 

397
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,880
being a murderer. 
You wanted to lure me here so 

398
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,880
that I could be disposed of and 
you could all continue your 

399
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,480
nefarious works without 
hindrance. 

400
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,080
Now aren't we clever? 
What is on nefarious work? 

401
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,520
May I ask your? 
Password gave me a clue for the 

402
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,360
lanterns by the French 
revolutionists. 

403
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,440
They strung the aristocrats up 
on the lampposts. 

404
00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,080
Then again, the combination of 
curious costumes and a luxurious

405
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,080
establishment in a low class 
area posed another question. 

406
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,800
What political belief provides a
common meeting ground for 

407
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,800
misguided aristocrats and 
dangerous commoners? 

408
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,440
And how did you? 
Answer that question. 

409
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,720
Oh, very simple my dear. 
Sir, one word nihilism. 

410
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,800
It's doctrine of assassination 
and overthrow of government to 

411
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,640
find every chance of being put 
into practice by all of you at 

412
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,960
the forthcoming jubilee 
celebrations to be held here in 

413
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,360
London. 
And also would account for your 

414
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:27,720
beggars clothes. 
A beggar would have greater 

415
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,760
freedom of movement in a crowd 
than an ordinary person. 

416
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,560
You're a clever. 
Man, Mr. Holmes, who Bad? 

417
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,720
You'll have to die. 
I'll get the rope. 

418
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,640
What are you going to? 
Do with him do. 

419
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:39,360
Give him a. 
First hand taste of nihilism of 

420
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:42,760
course can't live. 
I know too much you can't 

421
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,200
possibly do. 
This you know the police will 

422
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,880
track us here by the time the. 
Police get here. 

423
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,200
You and your friend Holmes will 
be blown to Kingdom come. 

424
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,240
All right. 
Hands together, Mr. Holmes. 

425
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,440
Oh my dad stand at wrist of 
mine. 

426
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,480
We knew it confounded us all. 
Isn't that a? 

427
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,400
Shame. 
Now if there's any better. 

428
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,120
Tie up the doctor. 
Cecil, while I bind Holmes's 

429
00:22:02,120 --> 00:22:04,160
legs with pleasure I can't go 
through with. 

430
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,920
This you mean Dorothy? 
You can't go through it. 

431
00:22:06,120 --> 00:22:08,200
I just can't stand. 
By and see two innocent men 

432
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:09,200
murdered. 
Don't be a fool. 

433
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,200
Dorothy, we can't let them live.
They know too much. 

434
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,480
I don't care. 
If you go on with this, I'm 

435
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,120
going out for the police, you 
fool. 

436
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,640
Fire up as. 
Well, Cecil, let me. 

437
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:18,960
Alone. 
Sit down there. 

438
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,520
Beside and go on. 
You're the devil. 

439
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,360
Oh, shut. 
Up now, Mr. Holmes, I'm going to

440
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,000
fetch a little invention. 
A little invention. 

441
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,160
I'm sure you'll be interested, 
Mr. Holmes, it's a pity you and 

442
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,480
your friend didn't learn to mind
your own business. 

443
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,680
I'm afraid it's too late to 
teach an old dog new tricks. 

444
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,280
It's too late now. 
At any rate, quite comfortable, 

445
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:43,880
Doctor Watson, don't you? 
Speak to me, Sir. 

446
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,840
You're a filthy traitor. 
Dear country rubbish. 

447
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,640
Here we are. 
Example of Mikhail Petrov's 

448
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,960
mechanical genius. 
This bomb will blow the entire 

449
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,360
building sky high and the three 
of you with it. 

450
00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:01,080
Now I wind the time clock so. 
And. 

451
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,800
We'll set the fuse to go off in 
in 5 minutes will give us plenty

452
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:13,480
of time to get away. 
So come on, Sydney, let's. 

453
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,160
Get out of here ride. 
Charming. 

454
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,520
Picture 3 of you, bound hand and
foot, sitting beside each other 

455
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,880
on the sofa. 
Tada Dorothy, think of our tours

456
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,760
during the 5 minutes. 
As for you, Mr. Holmes and your 

457
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,880
friend would redden some bad. 
Rubbish. 

458
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,920
Will Holmes. 
This looks like the end. 

459
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,760
I blame myself. 
I hadn't been so infernally 

460
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,280
noisy when I recognized you. 
We wouldn't be in this mess. 

461
00:23:44,360 --> 00:23:45,520
Wasn't our fault. 
Of alarm. 

462
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,680
I think they suspected me. 
Anyway, I must say it seemed to.

463
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,680
Me, that you told them a great 
deal more than was necessary 

464
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,480
about your suspicions. 
Surely you could have pretended 

465
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:55,760
ignorance. 
I suppose I could have. 

466
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:56,640
Done. 
I can't. 

467
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,240
Die. 
You're not. 

468
00:23:58,400 --> 00:23:59,400
Ready to die, Brownlee? 
Courage. 

469
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,400
And by the way, was I right in 
assuming that your associates 

470
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,400
are nihilists? 
Of course they are. 

471
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,360
They're planning to assassinate 
the Prime Minister during the 

472
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:10,600
Jubilee celebration. 
Prime Minister? 

473
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:11,680
Great. 
Heavens, homes, we've got to get

474
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,560
free. 
Assuming some miracle happened, 

475
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,160
we did get free, and your former
associates were arraigned in 

476
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,400
court, would you testify against
them? 

477
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:24,080
Oh, of course I would. 
What chance is there then it? 

478
00:24:26,120 --> 00:24:27,320
Bothers you that? 
Much baby family. 

479
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,720
I'll stop it for you, Holmes. 
Your hands are. 

480
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:31,600
Free. 
Of course they are, my dear. 

481
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,960
Fellow the bandaged wrist I 
mentioned just now concealed a 

482
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,120
razor edged blade. 
I cut through the ropes almost 

483
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:38,280
before our friends had left the 
room. 

484
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:41,400
Why did you keep us in the 
suspense, Mr. Holmes? 

485
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,120
I wanted to be. 
Quite sure that you testify in 

486
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:46,560
the forthcoming trial, Madam. 
There we are that renders the 

487
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:51,200
bomb harmonies. 
Ah, and that means? 

488
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:52,560
That the police have. 
Sprung the. 

489
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,720
Trap that I said to your 
associates, Lady Bramley. 

490
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,320
It's lucky for you that you had 
a change of heart and prevented 

491
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,080
you from leaving us. 
Oh, Mr. Holmes. 

492
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,480
How could I ever Thank you, 
Holmes, You. 

493
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,040
Had the place surrounded with 
police when you came in here? 

494
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,240
Of course I did, my dear. 
Fellow Yeah, let me enter your 

495
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,120
ropes. 
No. 

496
00:25:08,120 --> 00:25:12,160
Wonder you were so calm. 
No wonder you told them so much.

497
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,040
You wanted them to show their 
hands. 

498
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,880
Precise, the old fellow. 
They. 

499
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,640
Obliged me most satisfactorily. 
They attempted our triple 

500
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,880
murder. 
They are self contested 

501
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,280
anarchists and with the evidence
of Lady Brownlee I'm sure that 

502
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:25,640
we can put them where they all 
belong. 

503
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,200
Considering it's barely noon, I 
think you'll agree Watson. 

504
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:42,400
That is a very comprehensive 
morning's work, doctor. 

505
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,000
Tell the truth, were you scared 
waiting for that time bomb to go

506
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,000
off? 
Scared my. 

507
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,600
Boy I was so scared that to this
day I can't stand being in the 

508
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,040
same room with a a loud ticking 
clock. 

509
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,200
Tick to the clock seems to speak
to me. 

510
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,320
Seems to say tick tock. 
This is the. 

511
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,240
End. 
Tick tock. 

512
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,640
This is the end the clock. 
Ever speak to you like this? 

513
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,920
Well, yes. 
Doctor, how did you know? 

514
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,360
Well, what's the? 
Clock say to you. 

515
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,320
Tick tock. 
Petri took. 

516
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,400
Time to bring you good wine, 
Petri. 

517
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,560
Took time to bring you. 
Good wine. 

518
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:22,720
You, you listen to your clock 
and I'll listen to mine. 

519
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,920
Gosh, Doctor, can I help it if I
like to hear about Petri wine? 

520
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,120
After all, that Petri family 
really knows how to make good 

521
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:32,560
wine, and it's no wonder they've
been making wine ever since they

522
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,800
started the Petri business 
generations ago, way back in the

523
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,400
1800s. 
And because the making of Petri 

524
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,520
wine is a family affair, well, 
they've been able to hand on 

525
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,520
down from father to son from 
father to son, the skill and 

526
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,800
experience of each preceding 
generation. 

527
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,240
So naturally, when it comes to 
turning luscious sun ripened 

528
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,400
grapes into fragrant, delicious 
wine, well, you just can't beat 

529
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,400
the Petri family because Petri 
took time to bring you good 

530
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,240
wine.

And now doctor Watson, what 
adventure are you planning to 

538
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:25,920
tell us next week? 
Well, next week, Mr. Fullman, 

539
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,040
I'm going to tell you a story of
old Vienna, the Vienna of 

540
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,960
sparking lights, beautiful women
and lilting music, and of an 

541
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,440
extraordinary murder that takes 
place to the accompaniment of a 

542
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,920
Mozart Sonata. 
Or that. 

543
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,240
Sounds like a thriller. 
I'll see you for sure next week.

544
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:44,960
Oh, just. 
A minute before I go, Mr. 

545
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,000
Foreman, I want to urge every 
registered nurse listening in to

546
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,920
get all the facts about the Army
Nurse Corps. 

547
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,360
The Army needs you. 
Nurses needs you desperately. 

548
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,400
They'll make you an officer at 
once and give you every chance 

549
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,320
to further your post war 
careers. 

550
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,720
So if you're a registered nurse 
under 45, call at your local Red

551
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,840
Cross chapter and get all the 
details or wire collect to the 

552
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,760
Surgeon General, U.S. 
Army, Washington DC. 

553
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,600
And if you can't qualify for the
nurses call, see if you can't 

554
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,080
get into essential civilian 
nursing so that you can release 

555
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,400
a nurse who does qualify. 
But do something about it first 

556
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:28,880
