伦敦西区 1953年
阿加莎·克里斯蒂的《捕鼠器》 Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap.
在我看来 不过是一部二流谋杀悬疑小说 In my opinion, a second-rate murder mystery.
虽然我还没看过 Not that I've seen it, you understand.
但悬疑小说 But it's a whodunit.
千篇一律 都是一个套路 You've seen one, you've seen 'em all.
什么套路呢 You know the drill.
在一段冗长的序幕中 全体主演出场 An interminable prologue in which all the key players are introduced.
他们所生活的世界呈现眼前 You get a sense of the world they inhabit,
然后最不受欢迎的角色被干掉 and then the most unlikable character gets bumped off.
有人被杀了？ There's been a murder?
这句话意味着一位厌世的侦探 MAN: Cue the entrance of a world-weary detective,
即将出场 开始探案 who comes in and pokes his nose around.
询问目击者 走几条弯路 Talks to witnesses. Takes a couple of wrong turns.
电报 免费送达 佩图拉·斯宾塞 大使剧院
然后将所有嫌疑人集中到客厅 And then gathers all the suspects in the drawing room
指认最不可能作案的傻子 and points the finger at the least likely chump
就因为这家伙... because of the way the guy,
有可能 I don't know,
系了鞋带 ties his shoelaces.
看完表演的观众们 你们已经成了杀人犯的同伙 Now you've seen our play, you're an accomplice to murder.
所以请大家记住 And so, we ask you to remember
这件事与你们息息相关 that it is very much in your interests
出了剧院不得向任何人提起 谁是凶手 not to tell a soul outside of this theater who done it.
这些不过是我的个人拙见 But what do I know?
英国佬们对这部作品反响热烈 The Limeys, they just lap it up.
这部戏剧大获成功 The play's a smash hit.
成了一棵摇钱树 Not to mention a cash cow.
受益者正是这位树主人 佩图拉·斯宾塞 Right there is the milkmaid in chief, Petula Spencer.
我决定不来参加派对了 蛋糕已送到 阿加莎
这场豪华派对是为了庆祝成功演出100场 This lavish affair is a party to celebrate the 100th performance.
难怪电影制片人约翰·伍尔夫 No wonder film producer John Woolf
想把戏剧拍成大电影 wants to turn the play into a major motion picture.
他正在跟他性格稍显偏执的妻子跳舞 Here he is now in the arms of his slightly paranoid wife.
我感受到了死亡临近的气息 I sense that death is close at hand.
可能是冷风吹进来了 It's probably just a draft.
该我出场了 This is where I come in.
利奥·科佩尼克 Leo Kopernick's the name.
好莱坞大导演 Big-shot Hollywood director.
受邀把它翻拍成电影 Hired to make the film adaptation
只要没剧院版那么乏味即可 marginally less boring than the play.
碰上一个自大无能的编剧 执行起来困难重重 Easier said than done when the writer's a giant pompous ass.
默文·柯克诺里斯 Mervyn Cocker-Norris.
你好高啊 I say, you're rather tall.
是吗？我还真没想过这件事 Am I? Haven't really thought about it, to be honest.
这里是撞伤的吗？ Is that what happened here?
对 我在后台出了点小事故 Sort of. I had a bit of an accident backstage.
当然 他书读得多 知道不少华丽的辞藻 Sure, he's educated and he knows a lot of $10 words,
但他就像没看过电影一样 but it's like he's never seen a film before,
更不知道怎么当电影编剧 let alone try to write one.
他是谁不重要 No one important.
知道吗 有时候你比那不勒斯人还夸张 You know, at times you do rather overdo the temperamental Neapolitan.
外套不错 That's a nice jacket.
去给我拿杯好酒怎么样 小子？ Say, why don't you scare me up a real drink, will you, kid?
黑麦酒 波本酒实在找不到 汽油也行 Like a pint of rye or bourbon or motor oil, if you have to.
快去吧 Yeah. Hop to it, now, huh?
在英国 这算得上优质服务了 In England, that actually counts as good service.
战争时期 我的部队就驻扎在这儿… I was stationed here during the war
要说有什么变化 当地人变得… and, if anything, the locals are more uptight now
比德国空袭时期还要紧张 than when they had the Luftwaffe overhead.
默文 Mervyn?
你现在不该在家赶稿吗？ Shouldn't you be home? I thought we had a deadline.
我也想 I thought so too.
但剧本都被我们尊敬的大导演撕了 But then our esteemed director tore up the screenplay
他让我全部重写 and told me to start all over again.
他认为 如果不在开场就给观众呈现 He's of the opinion that a modern audience will walk out in protest
一个暴力死亡场景 他们会抗议离场 if they're not served at least one violent death in the opening frames.
你只需知道 我已经不屑跟他讲话了 Suffice to say, we are no longer on speaking terms.
默文 Merv!
全伦敦最多愁善感的编剧 London's most sensitive writer.
《捕鼠器》写得怎么样了？ How is The Mousetrap, huh?
抓住杀人犯了吗？ Did they catch the guy who did it?
我才不要傻站在这里 受他侮辱 I will not stand here and be insulted.
好吧 他是想去那边被侮辱 Well, I guess he's gonna go over there and be insulted.
全场最有魅力的人来了 What passes for glamour in these parts.
希拉·西姆和迪基·阿滕伯勒 Sheila Sim and Dickie Attenborough.
他太喜欢口若悬河了 Kid likes the sound of his own voice.
有一半几率 他又要发表演讲 Even money, he makes a speech.
我想我该说几句 I suppose I ought to say a few words.
少说几句 Not too many.
- 我什么时候多说了？- 还记得我们的婚礼吗？ And when have I ever? Our wedding, remember?
- 我们差点错过蜜月旅行 We almost missed the honeymoon.
-是的 Yes.
朋友们 感谢你们的到来 Darlings, you're ever so kind.
我想请诸位共同举杯 I'd like to ask you all to raise a metaphorical bat
为我们取得的成就干杯 to the old pavilion.
恭喜《捕鼠器》成功演出100场 精彩继续 The Mousetrap is 100, not out.
- 干杯 - 干杯 Cheers! Cheers!
给大家介绍一下另外一位不肯下线的人物 LEO: I tell you what else is 100 not out.
佩图拉的母亲 Petula's mother.
那个老女人最喜欢吃海鲜 The old kook's just crazy about seafood.
他们又上了海螯虾 They just brought out more langoustines.
失陪 我得去拦住她 Excuse me, I just need to deal with that.
-母亲 快停下 你吃得够多了 -嗨 Mother! Please, you've had quite enough. Hi.
我不是个大嘴巴 Now, I'm not one to tell tales out of school,
但我要告诉你们 这些女孩最爱听美国口音 but the girls over here, they go wild for an American accent
心心念念想穿上尼龙袜 and the promise of a pair of nylons.
但她们的丈夫… But the husbands...
行 今天我就好好教训一下你 Right. I think it's time someone taught you a lesson.
他们要难搞得多 ...they're not so easily won over.
我要警告你 我在皇家空军学过拳击 It's only fair to warn you that I learned to box in the RAF.
是吗？我在格里森的拳击馆学的开飞机 Yeah? Well, I learned to fly a plane in Gleason's Gym.
综上所述 All of which explains,
兜这么大一圈就是为了解释 in an admittedly roundabout fashion,
我绕到剧院后台的原因 我得换衣服 how I come to be in the theater's backstage area in need of a change of clothes.
谁啊？ Hello?
有人在吗？ Hello?
出口
完了 Aw, jeez.
我早该料到的 I guess I should have seen this coming.
被干掉的一定是最不受欢迎的角色 It's always the most unlikable character who gets bumped off.
悬疑小说 It's a whodunit.
千篇一律 都是一个套路 You've seen one, you've seen 'em all.

他来英国是为了拍约翰·伍尔夫的电影 so he came out here to work on a picture for John Woolf.
就是那位鼎鼎大名的电影制片人 You know John Woolf, the film producer.
他请汉弗莱·鲍嘉拍了《非洲女王号》 He made The African Queen with Humphrey Bogart.
“人性 奥纳特先生 "Nature, Mr. Allnut,
那就是我们来到这个世界上需要超越的” "is what we are put in this world to rise above."
这不像鲍嘉说的话 That didn't sound anything like Bogart.
不 是凯瑟琳·赫本说的 她也参演了 她是一名 No, that was Katharine Hepburn, sir. She's in it too.
很棒的女演员 Wonderful actress.
我经常去看电影 I go to the pictures quite a lot, actually.
就当给自己放个假 It's the escape, I suppose.
- 感受荧幕上的浪漫 The romance of the silver screen.
- 分享到此为止 Yes, thank you, Constable.
好的 长官 Yes, sir.
打斗的痕迹 Eh, signs of a struggle.
长官 那应该是博伊尔夫人被杀时留下的 Actually, sir, I believe that happened when Mrs. Boyle was killed.
博伊尔是谁？ Mrs. Boyle? Who's...
长官 是坐在前排的那位女士 Yes, sir. Um...She's that woman in the front row there.
看来她是死而复生了 Well, she seems to have bounced back.
抱歉 长官 她在剧里被杀了 也是被勒死的 Sorry, sir. No, she was killed in the play. Also strangled.
我还没看过 但是很想看 Not that I've seen it, although I would like to.
阿加莎·克里斯蒂作品 It's an Agatha Christie,
我喜欢精彩的谋杀悬疑剧 and I do like a good murder.
别说了 警员 Yes, thank you, Constable.
好吧 Yes, sir.
滑雪板打的 A ski did that, sir.
显然 是他们在剧里用的道具 They use it in the play, apparently.
当然 我还没看到过那剧 As I said, I haven't seen it.
头骨上的凹痕是缝纫机造成的 And then the large dent in the cranium is a sewing machine.
他似乎是先在服化间被杀 Seems he was killed in the costume store initially,
然后被抛尸到这里 and then he was deposited here.
呈现舞台效果 Staged, so to speak.
抱歉 长官 Sorry, sir.
这就是砸在他脸上的滑雪板 长官 Yeah, that's the ski that he took in the face, sir.
导致他倒地不起 直到断气 And, uh, I'm afraid it was downhill from there.
对不起 长官 Oh. Sorry, sir.
这都是我的主观臆断 That one just came out on its own.
他好像是下来换衣服的 Seems he came down here for a change of clothes.
为什么？ Why?
10场演出
当时他们正在开成功演出100场的庆祝派对 It was a party to celebrate the 100th performance, sir.
受害人打翻蛋糕的时候 另外一个0肯定… The other nought must have... When the victim upset the sponge.
然后他跌坐到了海鲜中间 Um, and he then proceeded to sit in the assortment of crustaceans.
有人告诉我他喝得酩酊大醉 I'm told he was intoxicated, sir, as a newt.
这比我想象中还要有意思 This was actually a lot more fun than I thought it would be.
然后他离开了 再也没人见过他 直到有人发现他的尸体 Then he left. No one saw him again until the body was discovered.
没错 长官 That's correct, sir.
会不会是众人合力犯下的？ Perhaps they were all in on it together, sir?
看起来凶手曾试图拔下他的舌头 Looks like the killer tried to pull out the victim's tongue.
怎么会有人做这种事？ Why would anyone do a thing like that?
打扰一下 高级督察 Excuse me, Chief Inspector.
叫督察就行 It's just "Inspector."
明白 督察 Yes. Of course. Inspector.
我也不想打断您 没有什么比这更糟… I hate to interrupt, I do. There really is nothing worse...
佩图拉·斯宾塞 大名鼎鼎的剧院经理 Petula Spencer, sir. Prominent theater impresario.
我知道了 Yes, thank you, Constable.
您打算还要把我们关在这里多久？ Tell me, how much longer do you intend to keep us all hostage here?
或者换个说法 你在等我们“自乱阵脚” Or is that the idea? "Let the galled jade wince."
将所有嫌疑人集中到一起 Gather all the suspects under one roof
然后逐一审问 直到破案 and then interrogate each of us in turn until the mystery is solved?
默文·柯克诺里斯 二流编剧 Mervyn Cocker-Norris, overrated playwright.
是著名编剧 Celebrated playwright.
抱歉 我写得太潦草了 Oh, I'm so sorry, sir.I can't read me own handwriting.
我们肯定不是嫌疑人 Not that we are suspects, necessarily.
我们是嫌疑人吗？ Are we suspects?
我只是在模仿阿加莎·克里斯蒂的创作手法 It was just a reference to Agatha Christie
在故事结尾 and her penchant for denouement,
侦探集中所有嫌疑… in which the detective gathers the susp...
我相信 那不是… I dare say, that's not...
-您继续 -谢谢你 默文 Please continue. Yes, thank you, Mervyn.
督察 要知道 Inspector, I want you to know
我一直都是最尊重 that I have nothing but the utmost respect

不过您觉得能及时破案 But, well, do you think you might be finished
- 不耽误我们明天的演出吗？ in time for curtain up tomorrow night?
-我真是服了你了 Oh, for goodness' sake.
约翰·伍尔夫 受人尊敬的电影制片人 John Woolf, esteemed film producer.
谢谢你的介绍 Yes, thank you, Constable.
这可是谋杀案 破案肯定比… This is a murder investigation. Surely that takes precedence,
票房更重要 sold out or not.
正好如你所愿 是吧 伍尔夫 Yes, it's all going to plan for you, isn't it, Woolfie?
你想终结这部剧的演出 You want the run to end.
我可没这么想 I want nothing of the sort.
这是我们该做的 It's the decent thing to do, that's all.
关闭剧院是出于对利奥的尊重 Close the theater out of respect for Leo.
失去他是我们的损失 Such a tragic loss.
督察 我恳请您不要反应过度 Inspector, I implore you not to overreact.
我不想越过您… I would hate to have to go over your head and
去直接找您的上级 talk directly to your superiors.
我们也不想这样 夫人 Oh, we wouldn't want that, now, would we, madam?
但现在这种情况 为了安全起见… But I'm afraid that under the circumstances,
为了安全起见？ as a precaution... Precaution?
他人都死了 He's already dead.
他是死了 夫人 He is, madam.
但在我们明确杀人动机之前 But until we have an idea as to a likely motive,
谁能保证不会再发生这样的事呢？ who's to say this is the end of it?
你这话什么意思？ What is that supposed to mean?
我们不只是嫌疑人 We are no longer merely suspects.
还有可能成为受害人 We are also potential victims.
天哪 没拍到我吧？我现在太丑了 Oh, God, I wasn't in that, was I? I must look dreadful.

杀人狂魔惊现西区剧院
好莱坞电影导演横尸可疑 Fleet Street is all over this,

- 很棒的演员 Wonderful actor.

媒体的注意力被吸引到这件事上对我们来说是好事 It's actually worked in our favor to have the press distracted like this.
我们可以悄悄地把瑞灵顿街谋杀案办了 It means we can keep a lid on the Rillington Place murders.
瑞灵顿街谋杀案？怎么回事？ Rillington Place murders. Yes. What's that?
稀奇 Blimey.
你没听说吗？ Haven't you heard?

你昨晚已经见过女警员斯托克了吧？ I understand you, uh, met WPC Stalker last night?
见过了 I did, yes.
- 你还在啊 - 是的 督察 Constable. Inspector.
她很有能力 A very capable officer.
只要加以指导 她肯定能行 Or at least she will be once she gets the proper instruction.
长官 莫非您想让我… Sorry, sir, I'm not sure I, uh... You don't mean you want me to...
正是 我想让你来带她 Yes, I do. I'd like you to show her the ropes.
我希望她对警务工作的热情能感染到你 I'm hoping some of her enthusiasm for police work might rub off on you.
这可是命案 长官 是因为… But the, uh, bullet, sir. Is that why...
这事没得商量 斯托帕德 This is not a debate, Stoppard.
人人都知道我是现代主义者 I have a reputation as a modernizer.
我得让大家看到我的行动 I have to be seen to keep it up.
我在公共场合说过 I have said in public
我认为未来的警力将由女性来充实 that I think women are the future of the force.
说得对 我赞成 Absolutely, sir, I agree.
- 但我们不是在找丢失的糖果… - 糖果 But we're not looking for stolen sweets... Sweets.
或者被偷的自行车 ...or a lost bleeding bicycle.

问问他们结果如何 Ask Jerry how that turned out.
我知道 但是… Yes, sir. But, uh...
就这么定了 出去吧 That... Huh? ...will be all. Thank you.

萨沃伊酒店
实话实说 科佩尼克先生 If I am honest, Monsieur Kopernick,

默文·柯克诺里斯原创改编
根据阿加莎·克里斯蒂的剧本
收敛点 警员 Thank you, Constable.
抱歉 长官 Oh. Sorry, sir.
是否有事故演变成了暴力事件 Did one of these incidents ever turn violent?
是的 有一次 Oui. Une fois.
你竟敢叫我烂编剧 How dare you call me a bad writer!
我没有 我只是说剧本不好 I didn't say that. I said it's bad writing.
在体裁范围内 我已经尽力了 I did the best I could within the confines of the genre,
伍尔夫很喜欢 and Woolf loved it!
伍尔夫懂个屁 他压根不知道什么是好剧本 Woolf wouldn't know a good script if it came up and bit him on the ass.
- 这就是垃圾 - 你胡说 不全是 It's horseshit! No, it isn't! Not all of it!
好吧 我读到的全都是 All right, what I read is horseshit!
你是说你都没读完吗？读得够多了 You mean you didn't even finish it? read enough, pal,
10页读完都还没死人 to know that nobody gets killed in the first 10 pages!
你就是个大忽悠 还给我 You charlatan! Give it back!
- 你听我说 - 给我… Listen. Listen to me. Listen! Give...
我们得明确一个全新的创作方向 We need to go in a completely different direction!
我要杀了你 科佩尼克 你这混蛋 I'll kill you for this, Kopernick, you bastard!
铁证如山 长官 他自己承认了 That's that then, sir. It's as good as a confession.
先别急着下结论 Let's not jump to conclusions, Constable.
明白 No, sir.
我们至少得听听另一方当事人怎么说 The least we can do is talk to this other party.
明白 我们去找柯克诺里斯 Yes, sir. Cocker-Norris, sir.
不要急着下结论
你把所有信息都写在这个小本子上吗？ Tell me, do you write everything down in that little notebook?
只记重要的 Only if it's important, sir.
你怎么判断重不重要？ How do you know if it's important?
我就是把所有的都写… uh, I'll just sort of put everything in as we go,
随着调查的深入 等确定什么是重要的… and then down the line when we know what's important,
我的笔记本可以帮我确认没有漏掉重要信息 we'll know that it's already in the notebook.
所以就是什么都写下 So you do write everything down.
是的 记下一切 Yeah, everything.
我就知道 That's what I thought.
你们刚好赶上茶歇 请自便 Make yourself comfortable. You're just in time for elevenses.
《捕鼠器》
不好意思 家里太乱了 You must excuse the desordre,
这些都是改编电影的研究资料 it's research for the film adaptation.
警局文件 法院报告 剪报 Police statements, court reports, newspaper cuttings.
《捕鼠器》是根据真实案例创作的 The Mousetrap is actually based on a real-life case.
来点荨麻茶？ Nettle tea?
我想你还没抽出时间好好思考 I appreciate you've not yet had time to come to terms
科佩尼克先生之死 但是… with the death of Mr. Kopernick, but...
他的舌头真的被拔出来了吗？ Is it true his tongue was pulled out?
调查过程中我不得透露案情细节 I'm afraid I can't divulge details of an ongoing investigation.
太恶心了 It was disgusting.
你说什么？ What?
他是我的侄子吉奥 脾气非常暴躁 That's Gio. Nephew of mine. Very hotheaded.
不知道是不是因为 I wonder if it isn't all the fumes.
受化学药品的毒害 You know, from the chemicals.
他是一名业余动物标本剥制师 He's an amateur taxidermist.
对那个可怕的东西非常入迷 He has a fascination with the macabre.
我把它叫做斯廷法利斯湖怪鸟系列 I call it his Stymphalian Bird series.
严格来说从鸟类学角度看 令人毛骨悚然 Macabre in a strictly "ornithological" sense, that is.
你们想问我关于利奥的事 You wanted to ask me about Leo?
听说你们在萨沃伊酒店发生了争执 STOPPARD: We heard there was an argument at the Savoy,
我看到另外一半在你这儿 and I noticed you had the other half of this.
督察 我们只是意见有分歧 仅此而已 Inspector, that was a contretemps, nothing more.
念一下那句话 Read that part. Yeah.
“我要杀了你 科佩尼克 你这混蛋” "I'll kill you for this, Kopernick, you bastard."
显然 我… Well, obviously, I...
这是断章取义 我… Taken out of context, I...
他挑衅我 我被惹急了才说的这些话 Those words were spoken in anger and under extreme provocation.
我们只是在创作理念上有分歧 仅此而已 We had creative differences, that's all.
你觉得《捕鼠器》怎么样？ How did you like The Mousetrap?
戏剧吗？ Oh, yeah, the play? Mmm.
对 我还没看呢 Yeah, I, uh... I didn't see it yet.
- 你喜欢的话 我就继续… - 不 不 不 Well, if you'd like, I can precis this... No, no, no.
我知道大体框架 悬疑故事嘛 I got the basics. It's a whodunit, right?
都有一具死尸 一名侦探 So, you got a dead body, a detective,
所有的嫌疑人通常都会 and then all the suspects rather conveniently
聚集在一栋偏远的乡村别墅里 end up in a remote country house together.
简单明了 In a nutshell.
我们的任务就是将这一系列不可能事件 Our task will be to present this improbable series of events
呈现给智商平平的观众 to an audience of moderate intelligence
但又不能让他们心里不舒服 in a manner that does not cause too much offense.
简单 Easy.
用闪回 Flashbacks.
不行 No.
什么不行？ No what?
不能用闪回 No flashbacks.
懒编剧才用闪回 太粗暴了 闪回会打断故事节奏 They are crass, lazy, and they interrupt the flow of the story.
那是编剧江郎才尽最后的遮羞布 In my opinion, they are the last refuge of a moribund imagination.
后面发生了什么？ Whatever next?
小标题提示“三周后”？ A caption that says, "Three weeks later"?
三周后
默文 别这样 Merv. Merv, will you come on?
别发疯了 能把门打开吗？ This is crazy. Will you open the door?
伍尔夫不来 我是不会出去的 I'm not coming out until Woolf gets here.
又怎么了？ What is it this time?
事情是这样的 I'll tell you what it is.
我提议了一个新结局 I pitched a new ending,
咯咯先生就把自己锁在浴室里不肯出来 Cockamamie-Novice over here locks himself in the bathroom.
用这个来取代追车戏吗？ Is this instead of the car chase?
两个都拍 As well as.
他可能以为结局跟枪战是一个意思 I think he thinks "denouement" is French for "shootout."
你能听我说完再发表意见吗？ Will you at least hear me out first, and then tell me you don't like it?
拜托 我故事板都画出来了 你先坐下 Come on, I storyboarded it for you. Come on, have a seat.
为什么不直接拍侦探将所有人集中在客厅 Why can't we just have the detective gather everyone in the drawing room
然后向他们揭露谁是凶手呢？ and then reveal to them who did it?
为什么？因为太老套 观众看厌了 Why? 'Cause it's old, it's tired.
都拍了千百遍了 It's been done a thousand times.
那谁来向观众解释到底发生了什么呢？ So then who explains to the audience what on Earth's going on?
没有人 No one.
我也不知道 凶手自己说 I don't know. The killer.
你现在知道我的感受了吧 Now you see what I have to put up with?
你能先坐下吗？ Will you please have a seat?
在一栋偏远的乡村别墅里 So, a remote country house.
所有的嫌疑人都集中在一起了 对吧 We got all the, uh, suspects gathered in the drawing room, right?

你讨厌这个结局 不 不是讨厌 You hate it. No, no, I don't hate it.

为科佩尼克先生的豪华酒店套房买的单 for Mr. Kopernick's rather extravagant hotel suite.
这不算什么 督察 Oh, nothing unusual in that, Inspector.
制片人本就该满足创意天才们的奇思妙想 I'm afraid a producer is expected to indulge the whims of the talent.
尤其对方是美国人更要如此 Especially when they're American.
但萨沃伊的房费是一笔很大的开销 But still, a pretty penny, a room at the Savoy.
那是当然的 Par for the course.

百科全书 Encyclopedia.
她就像一部电影百科全书 Cinematic encyclopedia up there.
- 不敢当 - 对 I wouldn't say that. Yeah.
好吧 Right.
很谦虚 Being humble.
我没有 I'm not.

谁告诉你的？ Who told you that?
瞧瞧我这是碰上谁了 Well, now, what do we have here?
伍尔夫 Huh, Woolfie?
悄悄坐在角落里 开开心心 亲亲密密 Sittin' in a quiet corner, all very nice and intimate.

明白了 I see. Well,
如果还有需要 我们会再联系你 we'll be in touch if there's anything else.
警员 Constable.
走吧 Shall we?
所以伍尔夫杀了科佩尼克来掩盖婚外情 But, sir, Woolf killed Kopernick to hush up the affair.
结案 Case closed.
要真是那样 I think if that was the case,
他就不会主动坦白这件事了 he wouldn't have volunteered the information.
那他排除嫌疑了吗？ So, then he's in the clear?
也不一定 No, not necessarily.
他完全可能因为其他原因杀了科佩尼克 He might have killed Kopernick for another reason entirely.
我真的… I tell you,
升职考试前我肯定没法及时破案了 I'll never get the hang of this in time for sergeants' exams.
你刚刚… Constable, about earlier.
好像撞上我刚从酒馆出来 I know it looked like I'd just come out of the pub.
事实就是您刚从酒馆出来 You had just come out of the pub.
没错 That's right.
但我喝酒是为了把漱口水的味道压下去 But I'd only gone in there to get rid of the taste of the mouthwash.
所以您喝了一杯杜松子酒 So you had a gin, sir.
酒能防腐 我补了牙 It's an antiseptic. I had a filling.
您不是说去做常规检查吗？ I thought you said it was a routine checkup.
看来你审讯技巧这一章已经看完了 I see we've read the chapter on interrogation techniques.
长官 Sir,
我知道我还没做过什么能入您眼的事 I know I haven't done anything yet to impress you
也没什么值得骄傲的 or to inspire any confidence, and...
我知道您宁愿我不跟这个案子 I know you'd probably rather that I wasn't on the case.
但我没有想参与这件事 But I didn't ask to be put on this case either, sir.
我很紧张 到现在还是… I was nervous, and I still am,
可能还用力过猛了 and I'm probably trying a bit too hard.
但您要知道 即使我犯了错 But, you know, even if I do make mistakes
或着匆忙下结论 or if I jump to conclusions
大家还说我是个话痨 or talk a little bit too much, that has been said,
但您要知道 我是个值得信任的人 I just want you to know that you can trust me.
长官 Sir.
好吧 懂了 Okay. Good. Um...

我很快就知道凶手是谁了 I knew who did it right away.
我妻子看得晕头转向 She was baffled, though.

对 Yeah.

他做了什么事让你觉得可疑？ So what did he do that made you suspicious?
不是他做了什么 It wasn't so much what he did,
而是他行事的方式 it was more, you know, the way he did it.
好吧 哪种方式？ Right. How'd he do it?
他鬼鬼祟祟的 Well, sort of... suspiciously.
形容得真“好” This has been great.
你可以走了 Off you go.

阿滕伯勒先生吗？ Mr. Attenborough, sir?
就是他 很有名吗？ That's the one. Famous, is he?
您在说笑吧 您没听说过迪基吗？ You're pulling my leg, sir. You've never heard of Dickie?

那天晚上您在台上我发现的 我… I noticed it the other night when you were on stage. I, um...
您不介意的话 我想借用一下这个设定 Well, I thought I might borrow it, if you don't mind.
主角有身体缺陷这一点感染力很强 It's always good for the lead character to have a physical defect.
它意味着主角也有自己的烦恼 Speaks to a troubled soul.
是我 督察 您不用再问了 It was me, Inspector. You need look no further.
- 我要以谋杀利奥的罪名逮捕你… - 别急 I arrest you for the murder of Leo... No, no, no.

谁让我有三寸不烂之舌呢 I've got a very, uh, silver tongue.
说实话 督察 I won't lie, Inspector.
他死了我一点都不难过 I was not entirely sorry to learn of his demise,
但他的死跟我没关系 but I had no part in it.
演不了电影《捕鼠器》的女主角也一样 Much like the film adaptation of The Mousetrap, it would seem.
别灰心 亲爱的 别听他胡说 Oh, come now, darling, you don't know that.
伍尔夫答应让你演女主的 Woolf promised you the role.
他是个讲信用的人 他可是伊顿公学毕业的 He's a man of his word. He went to Eton.
醒醒吧 迪基 Wake up, Dickie.
为了拍电影 他什么承诺都说得出来 He's a man of whatever word will get his film made.

我们一定告知您 if anything else springs to mind.
我知道 抓住凶手最终... I'm sure it's always the insignificant detail
靠的都是毫不起眼的细节 that catches the killer in the end.
对吧 督察？ Isn't that so, Inspector?
我周末一般也不怎么忙 I don't usually have a lot on on weekends either.

不知道 上面怎么说的？ I doubt it. What does it say?
“任何基于《捕鼠器》戏剧改编的电影” "No motion picture based on the stage play The Mousetrap
“开始制作的时间 "is to enter into production
不得早于第一轮剧院演出结束” "until a minimum of six months have elapsed
“至少六个月后” "since the end of its first theatrical run."
你不用担心这个 Oh, you don't need to worry about that.
这是部悬疑剧 一旦谁是凶手这个消息传开了 It's a whodunit. As soon as word gets out who did do it,
观众人数肯定锐减 audiences are bound to drop off.
签吧 就签在虚线上 然后我们干个杯 Come on, sign on the dotted line, and I'll make a toast.
安 亲爱的 下一次我签的就是我们的结婚证 Ann, darling, the next contract I sign will be our marriage certificate.

我本来想说怪人的 I was going to say "crackpot."
- 这是什么？- 塔罗牌 What's this? It's a Tarot card.
我知道 这张塔罗牌代表什么？ I can see that. What does it mean?
背叛 Betrayal.
是指他的婚外情 跟合同没关系 Betrayal as in his affair, not the contract.
合同条款是合理合法的 That was above board. Is above board.
阿加莎坚持加上那一条 跟我没关系 Agatha insisted on that clause, not me.
她非常注重保护自己的作品 No, she's fiercely protective of her own work, you see, because...
因为她必须这样做 Well, she has to be.
她激怒了很多人 People get so riled up.
还有人给她发死亡威胁 She's had death threats, you know.
这位可怜的作家连写信给《泰晤士报》 Poor girl can't write so much as a letter to The Times
都会引发很多诉讼 without a deluge of legal action
告她抄袭剧情或角色 and spurious claims she stole this plot or that character.
这不是事实吗？ Isn't that what happened here, though?
《捕鼠器》不就是根据真实故事创作的吗？ Isn't The Mousetrap based on a true story?
最初可能有点关系吧 Yes. Well, originally. I mean, tangentially.
有没有可能 这就解释了 In any case, that's the reason
为什么伍尔夫那天晚上急不可耐地要关掉剧院 Woolf was so keen to shut the theater the other night.
只有等这部剧在西区下线 他才能拍电影 He can't make his film until the play ends its run in the West End.
不然按照这部剧的火爆程度 As it is, what with the play being such a phenomenal success,
电影的事根本没办法推进 he's stuck in theatrical purgatory.
伍尔夫冷酷无情 He's a ruthless customer, is Woolf.
为了拍电影 会不惜一切代价 He'll stop at nothing to get his film made.
肯定是伍尔夫干的 长官 It's definitely Woolf, sir.
不能完全确定 Well, not 100%.
但我有七成把握 More like 73-74%, I'd say.
他在剧院杀了科佩尼克 迫使剧院关门 He killed Kopernick in the theater to force it to close down
这样他就能拍电影 so that he could make his film.
娶他的情妇 He could marry his mistress.
还顺便杀掉一个敲诈勒索自己的人 And then he could get shot of a blackmailer.
不是伍尔夫干的 证据显得太刻意了 It's not Woolf. It's too elaborate.
他还不如直接一把火烧掉剧院 Burn the place down, if that's what you want.
而且他还需要导演给他拍电影 Besides, doesn't he need a director to make a film?
排除了他 就是柯克诺里斯了 Well, then it's back to Cocker-Norris. Process of elimination.
不是默文干的 No, it's not Mervyn.
但拔舌头这一点 Yeah, but the tongue business.
他真的很讨厌利奥 对吧 And he clearly didn't like Leo, did he?
没有人会因为 People don't rip out other people's tongues
创作上的分歧就拔掉别人的舌头 because of creative differences.
只有痛失所爱 为了复仇 They do it out of revenge
或处于暴怒之下才会做这种事 or rage because they've lost a loved one.
他们无法原谅犯事之人 They can't forgive or forget,
一个人躲在暗处 仇恨越酿越深 so they just stew and fester alone in the dark
最后突然爆发 until finally it all comes out
犯下疯狂的暴力行为 in a sudden, frenzied act of violence.
您介意跟我说说您的腿是怎么伤的吗？ How did you get the limp, sir? If you don't mind me asking.
