Christine!
Don't shout, I tell you!
Don't shout!
I will shout if I want to! Who's
going to prevent me from shouting.
Listen to me! Why won't you
listen?
You're a liar! A liar! You lied
when you met me!
You lied to get rid of me!
You're a liar and a cheat!
That's enough of it! Get out
of here!
That's a nice thing for a wife
to say!
I'm nothing of the sort!
Oh, yes, you are! And you're not
going to get rid of me with...
...your silly Reno divorce!
You're my wife!
Well, what about it?
And I'm not going to have any
boys hanging around.
What do you mean?
Oh, you can't fool me! I've
watched him! I saw him come in!
Don't be a fool! That boy
is not...
- A liar! A liar!
- Why won't you listen?
Because I'm not an idiot!
You quit me eight years ago to go
on the screen!
I, who worked for you! Took you
out the chorus...
...let you out of the gutter.
And now you spend your time
going around with boys, you!
Go on, say it, say it!
Christine!
- Is she drowned?
- No, she's a mermaid.
She was strangled with this belt.
Keep back, please!
Now then, which of you found the
body first?
- I did.
- No, he didn't! We did.
- Both of you?
- Elsa saw it first.
- That's right!
- But he says he did.
- Well, he didn't!
- Contradict the evidence, eh?
Don't be silly.
Well, just a moment if you
don't mind.
Now, miss, what's your tale?
Well, we were both going down
to bathe.
And just as we got...
We saw this young man running
away
It's absurd, I was running to
get home.
You weren't, you were running
away, wasn't he, Helen?
- That's right
- Nonsense, the girl's hysterical.
I'm not! I'm not hysterical!
You were running away, you know
you were!
It's fantastic! I saw the body
from the top of the crest and...
...naturally came down.
I couldn't be sure if she was
already dead or only unconscious.
You see, I didn't see the belt.
I ran out to get help so that I
could make artificial respiration.
I was only there a few minutes.
This woman has only been dead
a few minutes.
Well, it's time we got this thing
finished.
Now, is this belt yours or
isn't it?
For the hundredth time I tell
you it isn't!
How do you know it isn't?
you've got a raincoat.
Don't put down "got",
put "had" a raincoat.
- Which you've lost
- No, not lost, which I had stolen.
Why are you trying to distort
everything I say?
Don't get excited, old man, it's
only a formality.
You had it stolen, let it go as
that. When was it stolen?
Well, I can't remember.
You see, I left it in the car and
went in to get some cigarettes.
When I came back it was gone.
You mean it just went into
thin air?
What sort of a place was this?
Tom's Hat.
All right, we'll let that go.
Now, did you know the dead
woman well?
Yes, fairly well, I knew her in
America.
Could it be unfair to suggest
that you were especially...
...good friends?
- Mr. Kent means her lover.
- It would be unfair!
Then we could put down that you
were friends, good friends.
Oh, put down what you like!
Were you good enough friends to
discuss money?
What's the idea? We discussed
... I sold her a story.
Paid in good hard cash.
former occasions.
Talking of money, would it be
accurate to say that you are...
...not well off?
More than that, it would be
practically true.
Would it? Considering the fact
that she's left you...
her will?
- What's happened to him?
