Emile my dearest one.
Pour le comte.
Bien sur, Madame.
My dearest Emile,
my husband has
changed his plans.
There is no other
way to say goodbye.
Remember me in your heart.
Who betrayed me in Paris
and why did you
wait so long?
I find your ladyship's
attitude surprising.
The answers to
those questions
are no concern of yours.
On my knees I beg you,
I implore you
to show mercy.
I'm not in the business
of mercy Madame.
I haven't the money.
Even if I wished
how could I without
my husband knowing?
Oh you'd be exceedingly
ill advised
not to make an effort.
Do your worst.
You will not have
a penny from me,
coward!
My grandsons were
punished enough.
I hear from them
only seldom.
They wish to spare me
their misery I think.
This monster who brought
about their downfall?
He lives and
breathes Mr. Holmes
with a smiling face
and a heart of marble.
You should have
come to me sooner.
If only I'd known
of you sooner.
A friend gave
me your name.
He has a high regard,
for your sense
of justice.
Do you read poetry?
Try a leaf.
CAM devil.
This is the only
clue I can offer you.
Maybe it will help.
I wish nothing for
myself Mr. Holmes.
It is too late for that.
I wish only
to save others.
3:
45 for London.I felt great
sadness there.
To think that
that house
must have reverberated
to the sounds
of those boys
growing up.
Man who preys
upon weakness
with a smiling face
and a heart of marble.
A master blackmailer.
yet no one has put
a name to him.
Well there's no
mention of blackmail.
Even a whisper of it
in the newspaper columns.
You'd have reported it?
Of her two grandchildren,
George the elder,
and Edward Kroft
was caught in a moment
of indiscretion,
referred to the paper
as the Badger Game.
It seems to
involve a gentleman
being lured to the
bed of a prostitute
then being discovered
in flagrante delicto
by a third party.
As usual the sensational
press has got it wrong.
The lady was an
actress that is true
but it was no
in flagrante.
Mrs. Hudson!
He was married Holmes
into one of the highest
family's in the land.
The paper's made
plenty of that.
And the younger boy?
Edward?
Now, he revenged
for his brother,
took a revolver
to the footman,
who's name was,
eh, Veitch,
burst in upon him,
shot him in the face.
The man lived
but was disfigured
for life.
After the trial
he disappeared.
It is Veitch we must find
to lead us to our prize.
Ms. Hudson are
you not well?
Of course I'm well.
Then please you know I
hate the smell of cabbage.
Surely the brothers would
know their tormenter.
the country in disgrace.
Edward joined him having
served his sentence,
they're now living richly
somewhere in France.
Goodbye Mrs. Hudson.
Thank you.
There is one curiosity.
C.A.M Devil.
Read it for clues
if you wish.
But later.
I'd prefer you to
direct your energies
towards the
gossip columnists.
The Grasslands.
The Grasslands, Watson,
for which our
serpent lies.
Do tell us where
you're going Charlotte.
Oh yes do tell.
Lottie where
are you going?
Shall I, dearest?
What's that my love?
Tell them where we're
going for our honeymoon.
I've no objections.
It's Buddley Solterton.
How romantic.
It is actually very.
I shall have to choose
somewhere abroad
for a honeymoon.
Paris or Rome.
You may Daphne.
But if one's fate is
to marry a soldier,
abroad may well be
one's whole life.
And your honeymoon
Lady Eva?
Have you and Harry
decided yet?
Florence,
Naples,
Constantinople
I think.
Sounds delightful.
Now you've made
him envious.
Not at all.
Charlotte my dear,
I must return
to barracks.
Shall I see you
this evening?
No, duties forbid.
Our regimental
dinner alas.
Ladies.
Lottie, he is gorgeous.
He's divine!
How'd you get so
lucky Charlotte?
But where is
Buddley Solterton?
Oh I'm so happy
for you Lottie!
What is this?
It's not in my hand.
My dear Colonel
you don't expect me
to give you the
original do you?
Where did you get this?
Who gave it to you?
Oh well,
who but the object
of your affections.
I don't believe it.
It's not possible.
What do you want from me?
Two hundred pounds!
What?
For it all to
be blown away.
Never!
I won't part with a penny.
I'll see you
in hell first.
Think of your lovely
bride Colonel.
What have you done to me?
One has to ask oneself
how much butter
can one eat?
Dotty Martian apparently
got seventeen salt
and pepper parts.
Seventeen?
It's true.
I was thinking of a
way of dealing with it
was to... Help me.
Was to mail her politely,
always useful until
the awful day
when always useless,
she said to the Duchess.
No.
Yes, it's true.
Lillie overheard her
didn't you Lillie?
Yes my lady.
Harry wanted us to
be married at sea
on a pirate ship with
only the crew invited
but one really
can't can we?
No my dear
one really can't.
I made an extremely
foolish wager
but I ended up
boxing a dragoon.
And will you mend
for the nuptials,
my dear fellow,
in three days?
You have a small
flutter in itself.
Thick socks for cold feet.
You can rarely hopes
they won't be needed.
Yeah my grandfather
fancied himself
as something
of a pugilist.
He was a fortho.
I remember one
summer in Ireland,
I must have been about
eight years old I suppose.
