Charlie Chan in Rio Page #4

I induced it with a cigarette

and the coffee.

You see, in order to give my patients

a proper psychognosis...

I must free them from any impediment

of expression or conscious inhibitions.

This combination

accomplishes that admirably.

- But you had coffee and a cigarette too.

- Yes, the coffee was the same.

The cigarette wasn't.

I don't know whether

to be frightened or... or angry.

Neither, please.

Frankly, I wouldn't have come here alone

if I'd known that this...

Considering... Considering

what you've just revealed...

that would be most unfortunate.

What did I say?

- I must be perfectly frank with you, Miss Dean.

- Yes, please. Tell me.

You spoke of having killed a man

in Honolulu... Mr. Manuel Cardozo.

I couldn't have.

I've never been to Honolulu.

You needn't defend yourself to me.

I'm not a policeman.

Besides, I treat anything I learn

as highly confidential.

Excuse me.

- Yes?

- Is Miss Dean here?

- Certainly. Won't you come in?

- Oh, Clarke!

- This is...

- Your fianc, Mr. Denton.

- Why, yes. How did you know?

- Oh, Mr. Marana is simply marvelous.

You must come to him

for a reading sometime.

- I didn't mean to interrupt.

- On the contrary, I'm glad you came.

Miss Dean is perfectly captivating.

Don't be disturbed.

If you have a few minutes tomorrow,

drop in, and we'll have a talk.

- Thank you.

- Good night.

- Good night.

- Good night.

- Thank you, Peter.

- Yes, sir.

Paul Wagner isn't the only one

who can dish out orchids.

Aren't you the jealous one?

Thank you, darling.

Mr. And Mrs. Clarke B. Denton.

Sounds good, doesn't it?

Aren't you listening?

Clarke.

Let's elope tonight.

Why, Lola, are you joking?

- We could catch the 4:00 plane.

- Yes, but, honey...

Oh, darling, it'll be far more exciting

to be married in the States.

- Please?

- Well, all right.

You are an angel.

I'll tell you what...

you drop me off at my house...

then hurry home and pack

and come back and get me.

Say, listen. What about your friends

we invited to the party?

They can see us off at the airport.

- Very well, dear.

- Oh!

- I'm terribly late, Lili. Have any of the guests arrived?

- No, Miss Lola.

- Good. Is Miss Helen home?

- Not yet.

- When she comes in, send her to my room.

- Yes, ma'am.

- I won't be needing you, Lili, so go help Margo in the kitchen.

- All right.

Good evening, madam. I should like

to offer my congratulations.

- Thank you, Rice.

- Is there anything you wish, madam?

- Oh, yes. Bring me my airplane luggage.

- Very good, madam.

What happened after that?

Miss Lola turned to Mr. Denton

and said...

"Helen and Lili go with the deal.

Don't they, Clarke?"

- And what did Monsieur Clarke say?
