" Husband commits suicide with gas. Marriage problems? "
No.
" Official of bank of Belgravia does it escape with fortune "?
Is the fortune of how much?
- 90 thousand pounds. - No.
It is a " real redemption ".
When used to rescue a king, it already interests me.
" 21-year-old stenographer disappeared. Where it stops Edna Field? "
- No. - These things are interesting.
A mysterious suicide, missing person types one...
But none of these cases it attracts me excessively.
Also I have my subjects what I must resolve.
- How, for example? - My wardrobe, Hastings.
I think that my grey fact has a stain of fat. Did it already notice?
No.
Well, it is only a stain, but it is sufficient to bother me.
Then, my winter overcoat. I will put part.
And I find what...
It is in the height of cutting the moustache, as well as of putting brilliantine.
A lady is here to talk to him, Mr. Poirot.
- A lady? - A client, is called a Mrs. Todd.
Unless the case is of national importance, I do not catch him.
- I do not know. Do I ask about him? - No, be in charge you enter. Todd.
We are going to value for us ourselves, Hastings.
Mrs. Todd. It does not seem to be of national importance.
Once I knew a Mrs. Jones what was a lady of the mansion of Hounds.
And what more?
More not at all, she was a curious woman.
- Mrs. Todd. - Thank you.
You are you. Poirot?
Yes, I am Hercule Poirot.
It is not at all how I was imagining.
He paid to the newspaper for saying that it is intelligent or was it initiative of them?
Lady...
Excuse, he knows them to me how they are the newspapers, it are not of spinning.
I wait what has not been offended.
It would like what was finding my cook.
I am afraid what is deceived. Hercule Poirot is a private detective.
I know. He did not tell him that I intend what finds my cook?
It went out from house in Wednesday without be dismissing and never again it returned.
Excuse, but not I stick in this type of subjects.
- To pass well. - Then is it so?
Is it too proud? Only well-read with government secrets?
Hear well, Mr. Poirot, " Almighty ",
a good cook a quite precious one is
and the one who loses one he knows well the lack what she does.
Lady, is right and I am missed.
His comments are just and intelligent.
This case is going to be a novelty. We never looked for a maid.
It is a subject of true national importance.
Where it resides, Mrs. Todd?
Prince Albert Road, number 88, in Clapham.
He says that she went out in Wednesday and did not he return?
- Yes, in her day off. - It was before yesterday.
He thought already that she can have had an accident. Did it go to the hospital?
It was exactamente what I thought,
but, this morning, she sent for his trunk.
- Which trunk? - Her suitcase.
- The travel suitcase, the luggage. - I understand.
Does one matter of her describing me?
Very respectable. It worked ten years at the same home.
Grey hair and thin.
- How does one call? - Dunn. Eliza Dunn.
We brought the Clapham near. This is the public garden.
Enchanting.
- Had not they a disagreement in Wednesday? - No, it is that that I find strange.
- All the employees does it have? - Two.
Beauty queen Dunn and the servant of room, Annie.
We arrived already. It is there the number 88.
We arrived, Mr. Driver.
Annie!
Hastings, my friend, promise to me a thing.
- What? - Never, in any situation...
... the Inspector Japp will know that I investigated this case.
I will not mention anything.
Annie, this man is a detective and he wants to ask you some questions.
It is here.
Well, Mademoiselle Annie.
- One feels. - Thank you.
Completely what could say to us it is of great importance.
Only you can explain this case.
Without his help, I can do anything.
- I count everything what will be able. - The best.
Well...
First...
What it finds of this? It is noticed soon that it is a young person of great intelligence,
but this is very strange.
What his explanation is for the disappearance of Eliza?
Esclavagistas.
I always said it, but nobody swift attention.
The cook gorged herself of warning about me:
" Do not hide with stranger none,
" for gallant much that the man is. "
- We did not remember this, Hastings. - So, it is true.
- Saint Deus! - Would it have sent for his trunk?
- Pardon? - Beauty queen Dunn sent for the trunk.
If she had been kidnapped, would it have sent for the trunk?
I do not know. It is natural what wanted her things.
Even abroad, it is natural what wanted them.
Who came for the trunk, Annie?
The employee of the transport enterprise.
- And it was you who put it in a trunk? - No, already it was done and tied.
Interesting.
It means that when it went out in Wednesday, it was already decided not returning.
- Is it understanding? - I never thought about that.
Tell me, Annie,
what it went to last thing that Eliza said to him before going out?
I called myself: " To be left peaches of the lunch,
" we eat them to the dinner, with bacon and chips. "
It was adoring peaches. I was not surprised what had taken it so.
What had taken it?
The esclavagistas.
The cooked peaches, yes.
Thank you, Annie, it helped me immensely.
- Did she say anything of me? - Of all.
Only he said pleasant things.
But for a woman of his intelligence,
it would be tiresome to hold out the indirect methods
what knots, the detectives, we will use.
I understand. I do not find them to myself what exists great difference between us, Mr. Poirot.
I always stood out in general culture in the school.
Is he seeing? And is his husband the intellectual?
- Yes, it is the best doing counts. - A well succeeded businessman?
It works in the "City".
And other inhabitants of the house?
- It concerns a Mr. Simpson, the guest? - Which activity does it fulfill?
Also it is in the area of the bench, in the overseas bank of Belgravia.
Is it young?
28 years, I find. A nice young person.
They must be at home ás 18:00H, if they want to speak with them.
What excellent suggestion.
I and my colleague are going to walk in your public garden during...
... an hour.
It is a coincidence the guest Simpson to work in the same bank
of the fugitive official.
- They had to know each other. - Perhaps.
Or then Davis visited the Simpson, he fell in love with the cook
and it convinced it accompanying it in his escape.
Come, Hastings, let's return for next to the Mr. Todd.
I heard already of you, Mr. Poirot, not already?
- It is possible, a Mr. Todd. - Yes.
- I interest myself in crimes. - Had you had to?
Perhaps have a theory on the disappearance of the cook.
Theories? No. It does not the question be a crime.
There are few good cooks, they are a quite expensive one.
Admirable.
Now we were liking exchanging some words with you. Simpson,
case is possible.
It is in the following floor.
' - Thank you. - And in the last floor.
Mr. Simpson?
A moment.
- Yes? - Mr. Simpson?
My name is Poirot.
Hercule Poirot.
Yes.
A moment excuses us of his valuable time?
- Clear, enter. - Thank you.
Mr. Simpson, you. Todd employed me to locate Eliza Dunn,
the cook.
- ' Where it is that she is? - And that that we do not know.
- You know it, naturally. - Well...
I think that I knew it, yes.
It seems that nobody knows of her from Wednesday.
- Did he see it in this day? - I find that not.
I do not know.
- In this day also does it work? - Yes.
Thank you, Mr. Simpson.
I was very nice on his part to dispense us some time.
Call, Mr. Simpson,
for these directions, at night, what a young person can dedicate?
The normal thing.
Music, amateur theater, this type of things?
- Yes, I find that yes. - It is not things that interest him?
Unfortunately, no.
Thank you.
I think that the husband is wrapped.
- Wrapped with the cook? - Something in him does not inspire me confidence.
There because a man a drink does not offer us,
that does not mean what is blamed of other crimes.
But, in mine to see, there seems to be no crime any.
Yes, it is a curious case, with many people contradictory characteristics.
I am interested, yes.
I am imensamente interested.
What?!
What? How does it dare?
- What was? - Like a great favor...
... I agreed in investigating this case of second category!
- What goes on, my expensive one? - Read, read!
" You. Todd laments to inform what his wife will not need
" of the services of the Mr. Poirot. After a conversation between both,
" it understood to be an absurdity to employ a detective in this case.
" You. joined Todd sends a guinéu by way of his services. "
Do they find possibly? They judge what are seen release of me in this way?
No!
No, not, no!
Thirty six times, no!
Did they send to me a guinéu? No!
I will spend my guinéus! One will be necessary 3.600!
But I am going to know the truth.
" I marry Eliza Dunn...
" ... come to communicate for this residence...
" ... he will be knowing something by what it will profit ... "
- With what it will benefit. - Yes?
- The best. Did he already write down, Beauty queen Lemon? - Yes, Mr. Poirot.
- Order to publish in all the newspapers. - I doubt that she reads " Teams ".
No, my face, perhaps not, but his new bosses can read.
It is walking. Vite, vite.
Hastings, does not hurry up going out, also I have work for you.
It wanted to jump up to ás races of horse.
- No, none is going to jump. - It is going to run the horse of a friend of mine.
For the near one, I go with you.
But now we will work.
I want that it phones to all the maids' agencies
and ask if Beauty queen Eliza Dunn it arranged a new work.
As for me, I am going to jump to the "City", in London.
You. Simpson came to work in Wednesday, as usual?
Yes, he is an excellent official.
In fact, it was lacking in Thursday due to a cold.
It helped me immensely, Mr. Cameron. Thank you.
Just as well that I could help it.
What bored event, the escape of the Davis.
- Did he already know? - It was impossible not to know.
The newspapers adore this type of scandal.
It is the human nature, Mr. Cameron.
For the mere mortals it is a consolation knowledge what also the banks
they have his difficulties. Again, thank you.
Inspector-chief Japp. Can I ask him any questions?
- Are you and the Davis friendly, correct? - Exactamente.
It costs to me believing what was doing it. There must be some mistake.
It does not even imagine sometimes what already said that to me.
He thought already for where him it would go, did case claim to be hidden?
What it finds?
I do not know. He was liking Broadstairs.
Well, I was thinking about something more exotic. Perhaps abroad.
I think that it never went out from the country.
In this Wednesday did you come to work, as usual?
The day that interests him it is it of Thursday, certainly.
- In the fifth one, I did not come. - No, Mr. Simpson.
In spite of having happened for the lack of the titles in the fifth one,
we find what were taken away in Wednesday.
In Wednesday all stow here the day.
- What goes on? - That man...
What has?
- He yesterday he questioned me. - Do not call.
- My expensive Inspector-chief Japp. - Does it walk behind the reward?
- No, I am resolving another case. - Which case does one treat, can I know?
There is a so-called thing confidencialidade of the client.
Let's say which East I marry it is of national importance.
The best. They said to me what was dedicated to maids' disappearances.
I said that I was impossible.
For very badly what was, it would not reach this extreme.
- Did not Eliza Dunn give news? - No, Mr. Poirot.
- Another letter of the Duchess of Braxton. - No, no.
She seems desperate.
No.
Holy God.
- Mr. Poirot! Mr. Poirot! - What was, Beauty queen Lemon?
A letter of Eliza Dunn arrived.
That itself! Did not he say to him, Hastings?
And you wanted to waste time with the Duchess.
- I found what... - He will learn to be a patient.
- The letter reads us, Beauty queen Lemon. - " Expensive Mr., or face Sra...
" I read his announcement in the newspaper. I already received my inheritance,
" if there is some mistake. Cordially, Beauty queen Eliza Dunn.
" P.S. Anyway, I thank the preoccupation. "
- What she wants to say with inheritance? - We will speak with her in...
- Fell Cottage, " Kiswick ". - "Kiswick"?
He is Keswick, Mr. Poirot, in Lake District.
- Are there trains for there? - Yes.
In this case, come, Hastings. We will catch the train.
See, Hastings.
Not even the only building.
A restaurant, a theater,
a gallery of art.
- An inhospitable land. - I judged what was liking the field.
But we are not in the field.
The field has trees, flowers and bars.
This is a desert.
I do not know because we came even here, it already found the cook.
The cook is only the beginning of the thread of the skein.
There are more important things behind of this.
Notice, Poirot, what splendid sight.
The sights are very pretty,
but they must be painted
why could we study them in the comfort of our homes.
It is for that that we pay to an artist, why is it subjected to such conditions.
But which conditions? It is a marvellous day.
- Breathe this pure air. - No, my friendly poor person.
This air is destined to birds and to hairy little things.
The lungs of Hercule Poirot they demand something more substantial:
The strong air of the city.
" Fell Cottage ", I judge.
It be Eliza Dunn for whom we look? What it will do does it link here?
It is that that we came to know.
What posicionamento marvellous.
For a stone, perhaps.
- Yes? - Beauty queen Eliza Dunn?
Yes.
Ancient employee of the Mrs. Todd, in Prince Albert Road, number 88?
- Exactamente. - I am Hercule Poirot, Beauty queen Dunn.
It was so kind as to answer to my announcement.
Yes!
Such as he said in the letter, I already received the inheritance.
Beauty queen Dunn, allows that we enter during a moment?
Certainly his mistress one will not matter.
No, one does not matter. Between.
Between.
Excuse to have laughed, but the fact is that I have no mistress.
This house is mine.
- Beauty queen Dunn, I ask for forgiveness. - It does not do badly, he did not know.
It makes part of my inheritance.
- Please, they are felt. - Thank you.
Beauty queen Dunn,
he talked to me about his inheritance,
but I and the Captain we do not know what it the question is.
Then because they came even here?
His ex-mistress, you. Todd, it is very much preoccupied by you.
It was afraid that it had had an accident.
- Did not she receive my letter? - No, none received letter.
- It did not receive any notice. - My God.
I gave a letter to a Mr. Crotchet. He said to him in order that you handed over it. Todd.
Skies.
Perhaps want to tell us the whole history.
Well...
I rest ás on Wednesdays.
And everything began in the last Wednesday.
I visited a friend to Oxton and he was going to return for house,
when a gentleman went to me.
He said that it had looked for me at home of the Mrs. Todd
and he talked to me in a friendly old woman of my grandmother, of the Australia,
what had left me money and a house in his will.
To beginning, I did not believe.
Then a letter showed me.
Healthy who these lawyers, Earst and Crotchet?
127, Wentworth, Melbourne?
One of them is in his presence, Beauty queen Dunn.
" Benjamin Crotchet.
" Advocated. "
I wait what this calms his understandable fears.
Yes, I did not intend to doubt of you.
We are going to treat what interests, Beauty queen Dunn.
- His house is in Keswick. - Is it near Ackton?
No, it is in the north, near Carlisle.
Holy God.
But before boarding this difficulty,
we will resolve another subject.
What?
It has not great importance, because it does not apply to this case.
It is a stipulation what it does not allow what is a domestic employee.
What was, Beauty queen Dunn?
I am a cook. Did not they say to him at the home?
Cara Miss Dunn, was not doing idea.
What unhappiness.
There I will lose the money and the house.
It was suiting that me well, even that it is distant.
I already know what to do.
Knots, the lawyers, we have some tricks.
You do not lose straight á inheritance
case has been dismissed before having known myself.
But we knew each other already and I did not say goodbye.
- Was not it dismissed? - No.
- Was not it dismissed, Beauty queen Dunn? - No.
I understood already. Yes.
Was it dismissed this morning, was not it? Before knowing each other.
Yes, already I remember.
- It is true. - Promptly.
It is imperative what is in his new house up to ás 12:00H of tomorrow.
For that, it will catch the train for Kings Cross.
Come, Beauty queen Dunn. I can give him money for the train
and you write a letter á his mistress, over what I himself will hand.
And everything ran like you. did Crotchet say to him?
Yes, it was still good.
And his luggage? The things what it left in Prince Albert Road?
You. Crotchet ordered them to me. Such as he said.
But all complicated ones came in chestnut paper.
You. Todd must have grown angry with my luck
and it did not give him my trunk.
- But Annie said that the trunk... - We talk about that then, my friend.
But you say that she did not receive my letter.
It is natural what had not given him the trunk.
I understand.
Thank you, Mademoiselle. There was, as it usually is said,
a small confusion with his trunk,
what I will explain with you. Todd, if it to be allowed to me.
- Very much thank you. - We go, Hastings.
We will return for London it as quickly as possible.
It has not as it will contact the Inspector-chief Japp?
Then him phone house. Yes, it is of extreme urgency.
Tell him not to look for the Davis, but what looks for the Simpson.
It is not the Davis, it is the Simpson!
Very much thank you.
Because the fact is that the Japp must it look for the Simpson?
What fez links?
Hastings, my friend, his cells grey today they are of rest.
They are on vacation.
- Have to do with Eliza, it has not? - No.
We left the small sphere of the cook, Hastings.
Does it have to do with the Australian?
- There is Australian none. - There is yes, she spoke in him.
One remembers of when we interviewed the Simpson?
The Simpson? No.
In his small room, in Clapham.
Yes, the guest.
One remembers of I had asked if he was liking amateur theater?
- Yes, I remember. - Because it thinks that I asked about that him?
Why?
Do not I know, it was doing conversation?
I asked because he had used a false beard there is a little time.
It had a small track of Arabic-gum in...
- How does one call this? - In the zone of the patilha.
That itself.
Is it realizing?
Yes, exactamente.
The Australian was the Simpson with a false beard!
Who is you?
I am Hercule Poirot. And who is you?
Sergeant, a French man is here.
No, I am not a French man, I am a Belgian man.
- It prays, he is you. Poirot. - Yes. Is the lady of the house?
- The Inspector-chief is here. - Mr. Poirot!
I do not know how it still has the impertinence of returning here.
We paid already to him, Mr. Poirot, and very well.
And now we have the house flood of police officers!
Today it is not very popular for these directions, Poirot.
We walk in pursuit of gambozinos. Because we realize,
you. Simpson is a bank young person perfectly respectable,
what had with his family.
The Police officer of Shopshire it is confirming these data.
- Only it wanted to ask... - No!
- Perhaps there wants to know what... - I do not want not! Pass well!
Poirot.
Annie, I want to ask him a question. Will it be that it can help me?
I am going to try.
Last Friday, the porters they came for the trunk of Eliza.
- Yes, it is correct. - Were you here then?
Yes, I was that I took them even to the room of Eliza.
It was very heavy. They were necessary 3 men bringing down.
Is it well?
Clear. Annie...
I called myself that she already had the ready trunk.
Yes, already it was done and closed.
Turn had a quite thick rope á, very tight.
- Did it have any etiquette? - Yes, it had.
- With a residence? - Only it had her name.
He was saying: " Eliza Dunn. Station of Twickenham, standing up. "
Very well, Annie. Thank you.
- Au revoir. - Au revoir.
Excellent.
Because it would commit the Crotchet such a prepared hoax?
Good question, Hastings.
But Eliza Dunn already has her house.
I judge what she will come to discover that the house is rented only.
- What was claiming the Crotchet? - The Crotchet?
The disguised Simpson of Crotchet.
Something of Eliza Dunn wanted.
- The money, the Australian inheritance? - No, an old trunk.
A trunk, without anything?
- But he could buy a new. - He did not want a new trunk.
He wanted a trunk with past, a trunk with dignity.
Poirot, for which he would like the Simpson an old trunk?
To put the body.
It was sent for Glasgow, it is waiting for being lifted.
Is it how that he knows? It did not consult his registers.
I do not need of consulting them.
- Body? Which body? - Did he come with you?
Because there is always a body in these histories?
With time, he will know of everything.
- Can we resolve this? - Clear.
I himself treated the trunk yesterday in the morning. A type, of beard.
- The Crotchet! - Did he speak with this man?
- Clear what I spoke. - Did he tell him how if it was calling?
No, only he said that Eliza Dunn she was his aunt
and what wanted to send the trunk for Glasgow.
- And did you send it? - No.
The "Southern Railway" pays to me fortunas in order that I do not do that.
- He is be sarcastically. - No, Hastings.
He is a good man, it has a work of great responsibility.
Very much thank you.
But I can advance a thing of him.
- Say. - Do they walk á search of this man?
- Clear that we walk. - I am speaking here with the chief.
- Slob... - Hastings!
What it wishes us to count?
It is well, I say to him.
I tell him where he is now.
- Say. - Well, I am not sure.
- Has not it already so much certainty? - Apposition that he is there.
- And where he is? - In Bolivia.
- In Bolivia? - It is in the South America.
What takes it thinking that?
I think that he was going on the way of there.
It asked to pay the sending of the trunk for Glasgow.
Yes.
It took away an enormous pack of notes.
It had some English notes, with which he paid to me,
I repaired them to myself that the majority of other notes she was a Bolivian.
Hastings, this man is a genius.
Is it how that he knows that they were Bolivians?
Thanks to a small detail: All of they had the word Bolivia.
Here it is, the departures of this week.
- There is nothing for Bolivia today. - Bolivia is a country without sea.
It is explained.
It goes away up to Buenos Aires and then it results from train.
Which lovely names do the boats have: " Queen of the sky " for Caracas.
Thank you. we Can concentrate in Buenos Aires?
Here be!
The S.S. Nevonia, of Southampton, to 01:00H.
Let's go!
Do we look for the Simpson or the trunk?
The Simpson, clear. The trunk is in Glasgow.
But first...
Scotland Yard.
It finds that these activities of the Simpson do they have anything of accident, it is that?
Clear, Inspector-chief. To rent a house for six months,
to give 150 you support the Beauty queen Dunn...
It is not great to guarantee the result of his plan.
And flat famous what is this? I heard already very much in him...
- It must be very amusing... - We are wasting time, Inspector.
Continue.
His plan is, clearly, to steal titles in the value for 90.000 pounds
of the overseas bank of Belgravia.
The one who did that was the Davis.
I found it, Sergeant.
The Inspector-chief Japp speaks.
Yes, Sergeant, the best.
It is of Glasgow. They found the trunk.
- And? - And what?
Did they already open it?
Did sergeant Hendry, already open the trunk?
I understand. They need an order.
Mon Dieu. A corpse is in the suitcase.
A corpse?
Sergeant, is possible that the trunk contains a body.
Yes, a corpse.
Yes?
Thank you.
He thinks that this can accelerate the process. Then it me phones.
But which corpse is this?
- Of the Davis, clear. - Do not say nonsenses.
The Davis stole the titles, it is the Davis that disappeared...
... in the following day. - Precisely.
That one thought that the Simpson wanted that he was thinking.
Listen, Inspector,
in Wednesday, the Simpson, disguised, it deceives the cook.
It had already stolen the titles of the bank,
he knew them to me what only would give for his lack in the fifth one in the afternoon.
It does not go to the bank in the fifth one,
it waits for them to me for the Davis when he is going to have lunch
and it invites it in order that the Clapham goes with him.
The employee is of rest.
You. Todd was ás purchases.
The house is empty.
The Simpson kills the Davis.
The biggest difficulty of the murderers
it is they are released of the corpses.
And it is therefore that the Simpson he wanted the trunk of Beauty queen Eliza Dunn.
If I am not in mistake, my friends,
it will be here what we are going to capture our murder.
It will be that I was wrong, Inspector-chief?
No, Poirot, cannot always be right.
CANCELED DEPARTURES UP TO NOTICE IN OPPOSITE
I was wrong Mon Dieu.
I was wrong!
Official! Of where there leaves " Queen of the Sky "?
- Of the quay five, from that side. - Poirot, where do we go?
" Queen of the Sky " it leaves for Caracas this night.
I remind of it myself of reading in the newspaper.
Yes, but Caracas is not in Bolivia, is not it?
What the official of the station he saw in the note it was not Bolivia.
- Then what was? - It was bolívar!
The bolívar is the coin of Venezuela. Our friend goes for Venezuela.
Simpson!
Seize this man!
No!
Beauty queen Lemon, for the left, at least one centimetre.
It is better.
Voilá.
Hercule Poirot it manages to lay the "finger" to everything.
The hand.
" I pay to Hercule Poirot, the total of a guinéu.
" Ernest Todd. "
It is a small memory of what we should not have despised the common thing,
nothing is despicable.
From a side a lost cook,
from another side an insensible murder.
