of the Star of
Rhodesia, Lady Margaret?
Twenty-five years.
You know it may
seem strange to you
but I've never
actually seen it.
I suppose there's no harm
since we're paying
you to guard it.
Mother?
Yes?
May I?
Do by all means.
Thank you.
Great Scott!
What a remarkable stone.
My husband
gave it to me
on our fifth wedding
anniversary.
Four hundred and
twenty-three
carats isn't it?
Really?
Your father had it cut.
Less ostentatious.
Ostentatious, it's as
big as a duck's head.
Watson please.
I'm sorry.
Thank you Lady Margaret.
We will be as
unobtrusive as possible.
That will be a novelty
from a policeman.
Now if you wouldn't mind
telling us where
are compartment is.
Oh I am sorry Mr. Holmes.
Oh thank you.
Lady Margaret.
Good night.
Good night.
Good night.
Impertinent's.
She called us policemen.
What's wrong with
being a policeman?
Oh hello Lestrade.
Where are you going?
The inspector's
going to Scotland

Oh really?
The season doesn't
start for another month
but you wouldn't
know that would you?
Who says I'm going
to fish for salmon?
Who?
Him.
Excuse me please.
Police.

to that of Madras
It's the quality
of the mutton

The meats unimportant.
It's the spices that
make the difference
don't you agree
with me Holmes?
What?
I say we were
discussing curry.
Oh yes, curry,
horrible stuff.
Oh really?
One man's meat is
another man's poison.
There will be two
of us steward.
My son will be
here directly.
My dear fellow
unpolished wild rice
does make a
considerable difference
to a good curry.
Well I still can't
agree with you.
Take care of this for
me, will you Watson?
I shall old fellow.
That was one of them.

Brilliant.
Attendant, will you
