Suspicion

All right. Goodbye, sir. 439 00:35:30,458 --> 00:35:33,539 That was a fib about Captain Melbeck, wasn't it? 440 00:35:33,639 --> 00:35:35,639 Was it? 441 00:35:45,401 --> 00:35:49,311 Did you have this letter all the time? - I did. 442 00:35:49,403 --> 00:35:51,403 Why didn't you tell me? 443 00:35:52,106 --> 00:35:54,889 Because, dear, I never dreamed I'd be using it... 444 00:35:54,989 --> 00:36:01,449 ...any more than I ever dreamed we'd be receiving these two beautiful chairs. 445 00:36:17,789 --> 00:36:20,972 Hello. It's a nice place old Johnnie's got here. 446 00:36:21,072 --> 00:36:24,808 It's an old Georgian house, isn't it? I bet it cost him a packet to redecorate. 447 00:36:24,908 --> 00:36:27,628 Who are you? - I'm Beaky Thwaite. 448 00:36:28,229 --> 00:36:31,331 You must be old Johnnie's wife. - Yes, I am. 449 00:36:31,431 --> 00:36:33,383 Didn't he ever tell you about me? 450 00:36:33,483 --> 00:36:35,816 You're Beaky. 451 00:36:35,916 --> 00:36:37,880 That's what they used to call me at school. 452 00:36:37,980 --> 00:36:41,152 I happened to be driving by. I thought I'd pop in for a cup of tea. 453 00:36:41,252 --> 00:36:43,217 I've heard so much about you, Mr. Thwaite. 454 00:36:43,317 --> 00:36:44,852 Johnnie told me about you, too. 455 00:36:44,952 --> 00:36:48,242 I ran into him at Newbury Races last week. 456 00:36:48,342 --> 00:36:49,676 The races? 457 00:36:49,776 --> 00:36:53,513 Put my foot in it as usual, have I? Didn't he tell you? 458 00:36:53,613 --> 00:36:56,295 Johnnie has a job. He couldn't have been at the races. 459 00:36:56,395 --> 00:36:57,696 Besides, he's given up betting. 460 00:36:57,796 --> 00:37:00,065 He has, has he? Don't you believe it, not Johnnie. 461 00:37:00,165 --> 00:37:03,934 He's a great lad, he is. You mustn't mind Johnnie cutting up. 462 00:37:04,034 --> 00:37:05,667 That's what makes him Johnnie. 463 00:37:05,767 --> 00:37:08,289 Besides, he thinks you're a topper, he does. 464 00:37:08,389 --> 00:37:12,105 I think so, too. - Won't you sit down? 465 00:37:12,205 --> 00:37:14,993 I don't see why not. Something wrong? 466 00:37:15,093 --> 00:37:18,410 Yes. There were two chairs here this morning before I left. 467 00:37:18,510 --> 00:37:21,145 Chairs? Disappeared, have they? 468 00:37:21,664 --> 00:37:23,664 Yes, apparently. 469 00:37:24,432 --> 00:37:28,767 Were they expensive? - Yes, they were museum pieces. 470 00:37:30,737 --> 00:37:35,540 That Johnnie, he'll be the death of me. Don't you understand? 471 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,755 No, I don't. - I bet you 20-to-1 that Johnnie sold them. 472 00:37:38,855 --> 00:37:40,293 Sold them? What for? 473 00:37:40,393 --> 00:37:43,796 For money, of course. A fellow's got to pay his racing debts, hasn't he? 474 00:37:43,896 --> 00:37:47,028 Johnnie dropped a packet of money at Newbury, I can tell you that. 475 00:37:47,128 --> 00:37:50,966 These bookies don't trust a chap for long. Not a chap like Johnnie, that is. 476 00:37:51,066 --> 00:37:54,401 I don't believe you. I don't believe a word you're saying. 477 00:37:54,501 --> 00:37:56,201 Put my foot in it again, have I? 478 00:37:56,301 --> 00:38:01,291 My dear, you mustn't take it so seriously. After all, it's Johnnie. 479 00:38:01,391 --> 00:38:05,693 Wonderful chap, there's nobody like him. But I needn't tell you that. 480 00:38:05,793 --> 00:38:10,430 He couldn't have sold them. He wouldn't, without asking me. 481 00:38:10,530 --> 00:38:13,313 Here he comes. Don't tell him I've said a word. 482 00:38:13,413 --> 00:38:15,513 If you want to see Johnnie at his very best... 483 00:38:15,613 --> 00:38:18,985 ...just say something about chairs. He doesn't need more than one second... 484 00:38:19,085 --> 00:38:21,116 ...to invent the most howling lie you ever heard. 485 00:38:21,216 --> 00:38:24,239 I wouldn't have missed this for anything in the world. 486 00:38:24,339 --> 00:38:26,804 Beaky. - Johnnie, how are you? 487 00:38:26,823 --> 00:38:29,422 What are you doing here? - I just popped in to see you. 488 00:38:29,522 --> 00:38:31,522 I'm so glad to see you. 489 00:38:31,710 --> 00:38:34,005 How's my little Monkeyface? 490 00:38:34,879 --> 00:38:37,163 What's the matter, darling? - Nothing. Why? 491 00:38:37,263 --> 00:38:39,082 You sure? 492 00:38:39,182 --> 00:38:43,219 Your wife seems to be missing some chairs, old boy. 493 00:38:43,319 --> 00:38:45,703 Your pipe's not lit. Let me get you a match. 494 00:38:45,803 --> 00:38:47,803 Thanks, old bean. 495 00:38:53,091 --> 00:38:55,860 Here you are, catch. - Thanks, old boy. 496 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,963 About those chairs, old bean? The missing chairs, old man. 497 00:39:00,063 --> 00:39:01,513 Yes, the chairs. 498 00:39:01,613 --> 00:39:03,982 I imagine the American came to get them thi
