- 1934 class. 429 00:37:29,497 --> 00:37:32,749 - S�. And the lady in the corner is the Baroness Atona. 430 00:37:32,834 --> 00:37:34,751 Oh, yes. I met her husband. 431 00:37:34,836 --> 00:37:37,504 He presented prizes at the folk dance festival. Minister of propaganda. 432 00:37:37,588 --> 00:37:40,674 And I am Dr. Egon Hartz of Prague. You may have heard of me. 433 00:37:40,758 --> 00:37:42,717 - Not the brain specialist? - Yes. The same. 434 00:37:42,802 --> 00:37:46,179 You flew over to England the other day and operated on one of our cabinet ministers. 435 00:37:46,264 --> 00:37:48,640 - Oh, yes. - Tell me. Did you find anything? 436 00:37:48,724 --> 00:37:52,018 - A slight cerebral contusion. - Well, that's better than nothing. 437 00:37:52,103 --> 00:37:56,273 But I am picking up a similar case at the next station, but so much more complicated. 438 00:37:56,357 --> 00:37:58,775 I shall operate at the national hospital tonight. 439 00:37:58,860 --> 00:38:01,611 Among other things, a cranial fracture with compression. 440 00:38:01,696 --> 00:38:04,114 - Do you understand? - Yes. A wallop on the bean. 441 00:38:04,198 --> 00:38:06,825 - I suppose you haven't seen my friend. - Unfortunately, no. 442 00:38:06,909 --> 00:38:08,994 I'll just take a word with the baroness. 443 00:38:19,005 --> 00:38:21,381 No. 444 00:38:21,466 --> 00:38:24,384 - What do they say? - Well, they both say they've never seen her. 445 00:38:24,469 --> 00:38:26,845 But that's not true. She was sitting where you are. 446 00:38:26,929 --> 00:38:29,097 - Can you describe her? - Well, it's a bit difficult. 447 00:38:29,182 --> 00:38:31,391 You see, she was sort of middle-aged and ordinary. 448 00:38:31,476 --> 00:38:35,312 - Well, what was she wearing? - Tweeds, oatmeal flecked with brown... 449 00:38:35,396 --> 00:38:37,355 a three-quarter coat with patch pockets... 450 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,525 a scarf, a felt hat, brown shoes... 451 00:38:40,610 --> 00:38:44,154 a tussah shirt and a small blue handkerchief in her breast pocket. 452 00:38:44,238 --> 00:38:47,157 - I can't remember any more. - You couldn't have been paying attention. 453 00:38:47,241 --> 00:38:49,701 - Now listen. You both went along to tea. - Yes. 454 00:38:49,785 --> 00:38:53,705 - Well, surely you met somebody. - I suppose we did, but... 455 00:38:53,789 --> 00:38:57,375 Wait a moment. Let me think. Yes. There was an Englishman who passed the sugar. 456 00:38:57,460 --> 00:38:59,503 Right you are. Let's go along and dig him out. 457 00:38:59,587 --> 00:39:02,214 Pardon me. I'll come with you. This is most interesting to me. 458 00:39:02,298 --> 00:39:05,467 Well, we don't like people muscling in, but we'll make you a member. 459 00:39:12,099 --> 00:39:14,017 Wait a moment. There was somebody else. 460 00:39:14,101 --> 00:39:16,228 As we passed this compartment, Miss Froy stumbled in. 461 00:39:16,312 --> 00:39:18,688 - There was a tall gentleman and a lady. 462 00:39:18,814 --> 00:39:22,567 Now we're getting somewhere. If we can find someone who saw her, we'll have the place searched. 463 00:39:22,652 --> 00:39:24,819 - Can I be of any assistance? - That's the gentleman. 464 00:39:24,904 --> 00:39:28,573 Do you happen to remember seeing this young lady pass the compartment with a little Englishwoman? 465 00:39:29,658 --> 00:39:31,993 I'm afraid not. 466 00:39:32,578 --> 00:39:35,038 But you must have. She almost fell into your compartment. 467 00:39:35,122 --> 00:39:37,666 Surely you haven't forgotten. It's very important. 468 00:39:37,750 --> 00:39:40,752 Everybody's saying she wasn't on the train, but I know she is... 469 00:39:40,836 --> 00:39:43,838 and I'm going to find her even if I have to stop the train to do it. 470 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,050 Caldicott. This is Charters. Can I come in? 471 00:39:48,052 --> 00:39:52,055 You know that girl we saw at the hotel? She's back there kicking up a devil of a fuss. 472 00:39:52,139 --> 00:39:55,225 - Says she's lost her friend. - Well, she hasn't been in here, old man. 473 00:39:55,309 --> 00:39:58,061 - But the point is she threatens to stop the train. - Oh, Lord. 474 00:39:58,145 --> 00:40:01,273 If we miss our connection in B�le, we'll never make Manchester in time. 475 00:40:01,357 --> 00:40:03,400 - This is serious. - Let's hide in here. 476 00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:07,946 I'm sorry. I haven't the faintest recollection. You must be making a mistake. 477 00:40:10,074 --> 00:40:12,117 Well, he obviously doesn't remember. 478 00:40:12,201 --> 00:40:14,327 Let's go and look for the other fellow. 479 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,039 Who were you talking to outside? 480 00:40:18,124 --> 00:40:21,876 Nobody. Just some people in the corridor arguing. 481 00:40:27,341 --> 00:40:29,175 There he is. That's the man. 482
