Not many men could have done it, sir.

What would you say, Forsythe,

if I were to put you in charge of this case?

Thank you, sir.

Right.

Your first job will be to get a specimen of this money

without arousing suspicion.

Yes, sir.

This may be a big thing for you, my boy.

We want quick results

and we will help you to get them.

You know, I always suspected you had genius.

Yes?

They're detectives, all right.

And that short one is my old friend Helmsley.

I don't like his face.

Goldie, come here.

Now Goldie, I want you to remove a piece of evidence

which might cause the police

to make an unfortunate mistake.

Yes, sir.

You don't believe I'm really innocent,

do you, Goldie?

Well, sir, in any case I hope

you get away with it.

And as I can hardly expect the police

to be more trusting...

I want you to take away a few things

and a magnifying glass that I...

Why, I thought I had left them out here.

What is it, sir?

They're gone.

Put these in the compartment, sir?

Yes, please.

I really don't see why Linda should have

to go to the Alps, too.

Nor do I.

Why shouldn't I go? I haven't had a holiday for ages.

Besides, dear Linda will be able to look after Gilbert

and see that he doesn't work too hard

at his drawings, his paintings.

What is it you're going

to the Alps for exactly, dear?

I thought I had explained.

Yes, dear, but it was all so sudden.

Mother, dear. I have been engaged by

the Alpine Hotel Association

to go over there to paint murals.

Murals!

Goodbye, darling. Goodbye.

Goodbye, darling.

Goodbye.

Goodbye. Have a nice time.

Oh, dear, excuse me,

it was entirely my fault.

Oh, so you're seeing off your dear nephew, too.

Such a promising boy.

I told you we'd keep an eye on you.

Gangways up. One side, please.

Pass right along, please.

British subjects this way.

Pass right along, please.

British subjects this way.

Pass right along, please.

No, wait a minute.

Stop him. Hold him off the boat.

No, wait a minute.

Let him go through.

I say, my name's Kent.

Oh, yes, very nice.

I understand my nephew and niece

are staying at your sports hotel.

Oh, yes, I take the luggage yesterday.

Miss Kent and Mr. Kent very nice.

I'm glad they've been behaving themselves.

Where are they now?

I think they go up the mountain on the funicular.

What for?

There is a possibility of lunch there.

Very nice, very clean...

Very cheap.

Oh, yes. Then they go down on skis.

Whoosh... like that. Very nice.

Sounds terrible to me.

Take me to the funicular.

Oh, yes.

Jim, darling. What on earth

made you suddenly come out here?

Am I a pleasant surprise or a terrible nuisance?

A marvelous surprise.

Where's Gilbert.

He'll be joining us in a minute.
