Why had he lied? It was agony. 251 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,360 I tried not to think any more... 252 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:58,360 but my mind was on a treadmill. Why had he lied? Why had he gone? 253 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,760 Why had he lied? Why had he gone? Because I locked the door? 254 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,360 He said he hadn't come up, but he had. 255 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,880 I knew it was Mark who tried the door. I knew it all the time. 256 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:18,200 Surely my childish prank couldn't have changed his love for me, so why had he gone? 257 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:24,200 Why had he lied? Why had he gone? Why had he lied? 258 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,320 I couldn't stand it any longer. I had to try to sleep. 259 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:43,360 Maybe Paquita was wrong. Maybe the telegram came by mail or was sent from the next town. 260 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,600 But Paquita wasn't wrong. There was no telegram. 261 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,160 For some impossible reason he'd lied to me. 262 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,400 I lay there for hours. 263 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,720 Or so it seemed to me. I couldn't sleep. 264 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:12,280 Over and over and over and over, the one thought: 265 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,880 Why doesn't he love me any more? 266 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,440 Finally I must have fallen into a kind of half-sleep... 267 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:33,080 and I dreamed I heard the car coming back. It came closer and closer... 268 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,280 and stopped in front of the Hacienda. 269 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:40,000 Mark was in it- he'd come back. But I wasn't glad... 270 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,600 I was afraid and my fear woke me up. 271 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:49,840 Yes? 272 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:58,760 Seņora, the car came back.

Mark said you were beautiful. 279 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,440 I'm Carol: Carrie, Mark's sister. 280 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:52,960 Oh, of course. 281 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,320 I'm relieved to hear that he mentioned me - he's apt to disregard minor details. 282 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,160 Is all of this yours? - Part of it... and some trunks. 283 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,200 I'll give you the checks.

For a while he even thought of moving his 291 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,560 New York office to Levender Falls when rents became simply criminal. 292 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:34,280 He had to cut a lot of corners to make ends meet, but Mark finally decided he needed the New York front. 293 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,200 We're rather short on servants - we've only one old couple. 294 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,040 It was probably David, sizing you up. 295 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:09,000 David? 296 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,560 - Yes, Mark's son. 297 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:24,360 Andy!

What would you like? 342 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,000 Oh, I eat everything. 343 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,040 Fine, I'll fix a tray for you while you have your bath. 344 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,240 Thank you. 345 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,520 Carrie. 346 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:25,760 Carrie? 347 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,080 I'm sorry, I was looking for Miss Lamphere. 348 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,760 I'm Miss Robey - Mr Lamphere's secretary. 349 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:37,520 May I help you? 350 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:43,760 I'm Celia Barrett. I mean, Mrs Lamphere. I think I saw you at the window when I came in. 351 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,720 It was you I saw. - No. 352 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,880 Well, it was rather dark. Caroline thought it was David. 353 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,360 Very likely. - I'm looking forward so much to meeting him. 354 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,800 He isn't feeling well tonight, since this afternoon. 355 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,800 Oh, I suppose it's because of me. - He was very much attached to his mother. 356 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,040 I can understand how that makes him somewhat difficult. 357 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:11,640 No, he isn't difficult. Only someone who hasn't the time - or doesn't care to take the trouble to know him - would think that. 358 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,160 David's a fine boy. 359 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,040 Nervous, maybe - and sensitive, but he resents domination. 360 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:19,920 That's ridiculous, Miss Robey! 361 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:25,320 He's spoiled. We nearly had a flood, my dear. 362 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,320 Good heavens, the tub! 363 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,800 I turned it off just in the nick of time. Your supper's waiting. 364 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,840 Good night, Miss Robey. - Good night, Mrs Lamphere. 365 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,360 I wish she'd mind her own business. 366 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:44,760 Domination! I know what David needs. Love, of course, but a firm hand. 367 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,360 I suppose he misses his mother very much. 368 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:52,480 Eleanor pampered him, probably because she and Mark became so completely estranged. 369 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:58,760 The break was final after he came back from the war: He moved into the little room adjoining the study. 370 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:04,120 When Eleanor became ill she shut herself off from everyone... except David. 371 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:08,720 I noticed thatnoneof Mark'sthingswereinthere- I wasgoingtofilea protest 372 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,760 They came this afternoon. Sarah kept them in the refrigerator until you got here. 373 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,840 The rat! They're from Mark. - So I imagine. 374 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,480 And now, to coin a phrase, I could eat a horse! 375 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:33,600 Everything was raised right here at Blaze Creek, even the milk - we keep a Jersey. 376 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,440 She's very good looking. - Who? 377 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,560 Miss Robey. - Oh. She used to be. 378 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,520 When David was four the summer house caught fire and she saved his life. 379 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,840 One side of her face was burned. 380 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,840 I wondered why she was wearing that scarf. 381 00:34:50,720 --> 00:34:55,640 It's a pity for a woman to be disfigured, but she uses it as a hold over Mark. 382 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,000 I think gratitude has its limits, but you know Mark. 383 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,520 You'd think he was old enough to know these things. 384 00:35:03,240 --> 00:35:05,600 - I guess men don't live to be that old! 385 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,520 Incidentally, what time does my beast get in tomorrow? 386 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:14,760 The middle of the night for you: 10 a.m. - Good grief! How could he do that to me! 387 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,320 But I'll fix him! I'll be there! 388 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:25,080 Cheers, we made it! 389 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,280 - Yes, ma'am, with a minute to spare by the clock. 390 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:47,520 Mark! Mark! 391 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,080 Oh, darling! 392 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,400 Your heart is beating so fast! 393 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,240 I'm flesh and blood, remember! I can feel your heart, too. 394 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,280 I'm tired. - You look tired, darling. 395 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,040 Efficiently tired. Has it been bad? 396 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,920 Not good. - Didn't the sale go through? 397 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:28,480 As soon as the found out I needed the money, they got cagey and withdrew the offer. 398 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:34,400 I... I must see Townsend at the bank before lunch. - Oh, darling, our first day? 399 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,920 Tell Andy to pick me up about five. I'll see you at dinner. 400 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,880 When does the next train leave for New York? - 4:40 ma'am. 401 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,160 Thank you. - Yes, ma'am. 402 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:20,120 Good morning, Mrs Lamphere. Do you want Andy to take your trunks now? 403 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,000 No, thank you. Leave them here. - Yes. 404 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:27,880 Home. 405 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:36,600 Home! Where is home? Not with Mark- not any more. 406 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,720 It was a gamble and I lost. Period. 407 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,440 I'm going back to New York. 408 00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:48,760 Back to what?

I blame myself, but it just wasn't a marriage. 464 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,080 But you had a son. 465 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:03,480 I was never close to him, either. He blamed me for her unhappiness. 466 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,120 Was she very unhappy? 467 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,840 I don't understand the things she cared for and I couldn't make her understand 468 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:09,760 the things that were important to me. 469 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:15,120 Let's not make the same mistake.

There are just too many people in the library. 517 00:46:38,240 --> 00:46:40,240 I thought you might show some of them your rooms. 518 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,720 I don't know, Carrie - I haven't seen them myself since I came back. 519 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,520 Celia, I told you about them in Mexico. - Yes, Mark, I'd love to see them. 520 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,120 You have to, Mark, to split them up. I'll suggest games to the others. 521 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:50,080 Very well, Carrie. 522 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:52,440 Let's go and see how many customers we have. 523 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,680 Rooms? - Mark has a hobby. He collects rooms 524 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,760 like some people collect butterflies. They're somehow connected with happy events. 525 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,000 He has a theory... 526 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,720 ...that under certain conditions a room can influence, or even determine, the actions 527 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:07,120 of the people living in it. 528 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,680 Now, the first room that you're about to see is the salon of the comtesse de Bleumanoir. 529 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:17,480 It was sealed by her husband on the morning of August 25th, 1572. 530 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,520 I first heard of it in Paris nine years ago. It started my collection. 531 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,720 It must have cost considerable to copy a room like this? 532 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:26,200 - It isn't a copy. 533 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:30,360 These are the original rooms down to their last detail, as much as possible. 534 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,320 I bet there's a love story. 535 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,240 - Not exactly. - What happened? 536 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,000 Murder, my dear. 537 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,960 It was the eve of St Bartholomew's Day. The Guise family, to which the count belonged, 538 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:48,040 had planned, you will recall, to murder all the Huguenots in Paris. 539 00:47:48,240 --> 00:47:53,200 The count was a religious bigot. When he discovered that his beloved wife, 540 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:57,400 Celeste, was secretly a Huguenot, she was nothing to him any more. 541 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,840 Athing without a soul. 542 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,400 She was lying on the chaise-longue, reading, when he came in. 543 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,560 Did he poison her? - Why? 544 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,520 Oh, you mean the glass? No, no, that was mine. 545 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:16,640 But, if you notice the handkerchief on the couch, there's a little blood - 546 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:18,520 it was a rapier thrust. 547 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,280 In room number two, the weapon was less conventional. 548 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,240 The killer used the floods of 1913. 549 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:33,000 This was the cellar of a house in Barton, Missouri, where the floods were especially severe. 550 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:36,120 He was a sordid little rat. 551 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,160 Who was the victim? - His mother. 552 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,400 That's rather rare - murder of a mother by her son. 553 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:43,280 She's a brain psych major. 554 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:50,280 In many cases the murder of a girlfriend, or a wife, has its psychological roots in an unconscious hatred for the mother. 555 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:56,320 As I see it, the motive was common as dirt: The old lady was insured. 556 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:02,520 He tied her to that chair. The waters were rising. 557 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,280 You can see how high the waters rose. 558 00:49:10,240 --> 00:49:15,240 Don Ignacio couldn't stand the sight of blood; he was a cultivated man. 559 00:49:16,240 --> 00:49:19,480 As you can see by this room, even in the wilderness of Paraguay 560 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:24,600 in his hacienda surrounded by desolate pampas, he lived a cosmopolitan life. 561 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:26,400 He'd been educated in Paris. 562 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,680 To Don Ignacio, murder, as well as love, was a fine art 563 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,200 and in both he was a master and a perfectionist. 564 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:41,720 Constancia, Maria, Isabella - they were all girls of flawless beauty. 565 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:46,960 Before Don Ignacio faced the firing squad, he swore that he never intended to murder, 566 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:52,320 that what he hoped for was an ultimate and lasting love, but that something... 567 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:59,320 he spoke of an unholy emanation from this room that drove him inevitably to kill. 568 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:00,920 Pretty far-fetched. 569 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:03,800 For Don Ignacio it seemed the most apt. 570 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,960 A pity for him that in his day nothing was known yet about psychoanalysis. 571 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,120 Then if the room had nothing to do with it... - 'Course it did. Very important. 572 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:16,320 Something happened to him here - perhaps in his childhood - and he'd made a resolution 573 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:20,320 in this room to kill. His conscious mind had forgotton all about it but... 574 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:21,240 But he still killed. 575 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,560 - Naturally, but he didn't know why - he just had to. 576 00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:29,680 But if he'd been able to tell someone, like a psychoanalyst, what it was that happened here 577 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,160 no murder would have been necessary. 578 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:36,560 Unless, of course, his love for his victims made it necessary. 579 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:43,240 Now, our next murderer, compared to Don Ignacio, was a blundering amateur. 580 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,160 Didn't you say happy events? 581 00:50:55,240 --> 00:51:00,200 I'm sure that's what Mark said. I must have misunderstood him... I... 582 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,120 Mark wouldn't lie to me. 583 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:12,040 Celia, when Rick died he left me with certain responsibilities and... 584 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:19,400 Well, I may not be alone with you again. You signed a power of attorney last week. 585 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,920 Do you realize it gives Mark the same power over your trust fund that you have, 586 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:26,600 complete control over all your money? - But he needed money for his magazine. 587 00:51:26,720 --> 00:51:29,680 The magazine makes pretty good money. - Bob, you're jealous! 588 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,360 If you feel that way, Celia... - I'm sorry, but I know Mark - 589 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,480 he wouldn't do anything unfair. 590 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:41,960 They say women are canny. - Ha-ha! Ha-ha! Mark's a lucky fellow. 591 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:48,480 First wife's money runs out - she dies. Second wife - plenty of scraps. Nice work! 592 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,000 You don't want to make a scene, Celia. - It's vicious. 593 00:51:51,240 --> 00:51:52,080 Gossip, Celia - ignore it. 594 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:54,160 I had to beg Mark to use my money. I forced him to... 595 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,920 You tell me to ignore gossip, but you believe it yourself. 596 00:51:57,240 --> 00:51:58,160 Celia! 597 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:04,800 Ah! But there's not a bale in the loft. I admit we women provide plenty of provocation, Mark, 598 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:09,080 but there must be some way short of murder to demonstrate male exasperation! 599 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,760 From Eve till today, women are our greatest temptation. 600 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,320 That is the last of the rooms to be seen, ladies and gentlemen. 601 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:17,320 The guide is not allowed to accept tips. 602 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,240 Oh... we haven't seen this one, have we? 603 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:24,920 No. 604 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:26,880 Isn't it complete? 605 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,640 - Yes. - Then don't let's skip it. 606 00:52:33,720 --> 00:52:37,080 Why, it's locked. This must be tops in gruesomeness! 607 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:38,800 Come on, Mark, open up! 608 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,960 A man must have some secrets. - Danger, darling, danger. 609 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,320 Never trust a man with secrets. - Doesn't your husband have any? 610 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:50,520 Naturally. It's as instinctive for Arthur to hide things from me as for a dog to hide bones under a rug. 611 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,400 Arthur! - What is it, darling? 612 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:57,040 When the rain started Arthur was... oh heavens! - What is it? 613 00:52:57,240 --> 00:52:59,880 Well, you know Arthur - one drink too many and he's over the edge. 614 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:04,280 He was sleeping in one of those canvas chairs back at the Pacifica bushes and I forgot him. 615 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,040 He must be drowned by now. 616 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,200 It's good to be alone with you at last, darling. 617 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,360 Night cap? - Mm-hmm. 618 00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:34,400 Mark... didn't you tell me in Mexico that you collected 'happy rooms'? 619 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:38,240 Happy? No. Felicitous, is that what you mean? 620 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,240 - Mm-hmm. - Felicitous doesn't mean happy, darling. 621 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:46,920 Look it up in the dictionary: It means happy in effect, fitting, apt. 622 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:51,400 I use the term to describe an architecture that fits the events that happen in it. 623 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:57,720 But why only murder rooms, Mark? - Murder comes from a strong emotion. 624 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:01,720 More direct even than love. It's the clearest demonstration of my theory. 625 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,240 I was rather shocked. 626 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,600 By the stories? Most people find them pretty potent. 627 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,840 No, it wasn't that. It was you. 628 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:20,920 Somehow I felt as though I did that night in Mexico - and when I met you at the station... 629 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,600 I don't know what you're talking about, Celia. 630 00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:28,960 It was the way you... immersed yourself in those stories 631 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,520 as if you were almost happy about their deaths. 632 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:34,520 Mark, 633 00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:37,840 what's in the seventh room? 634 00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,480 It will never be shown to anyone. 635 00:54:42,720 --> 00:54:43,880 Not even to you. 636 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,640 Oh, Mark, what do you mean by 'never'? 637 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:48,200 - By what I mean. 638 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:55,200 I'm not just curious, darling. I don't mean to pry, I want to understand you, remember? 639 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:56,880 I have to live my own life. 640 00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,760 Since I was a child, I've been hemmed-in by women wanting to live it for me. 641 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,280 Caroline, Eleanor and now you, too. No, thanks. 642 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:07,160 Mark, surely there can't be anything in the room worth quarrelling about? 643 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,400 I don't want to discuss it! The room is locked and stays locked! 644 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:22,480 Good morning. - Good morning, ma'am. 645 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,600 I thought you never got up before eleven. - I couldn't sleep. 646 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:27,600 Butterflies? - Uh-uh. 647 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,280 A little headache. 648 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,560 What are you planting? - Carnations. 649 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:38,520 I like carnations. Deep red ones and lilacs. 650 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,520 She liked lilacs, too, Mr Mark's mother. 651 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:47,160 All this side of the house was a solid bank of it - white and purple 652 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,240 and that fuzzy kind they call Persian. 653 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:50,760 What happened to it? 654 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:54,320 They was dug out when Mr Mark came home from school. 655 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:57,280 Yes, Mark had them taken out the summer after mother died... 656 00:55:58,120 --> 00:55:59,880 so long ago. 657 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,840 Oh, Andy, I left the bonemeal on your work bench. 658 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:05,000 Yes, ma'am. 659 00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:08,400 Only after dinner. 660 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:13,160 Celia, I've been trying to tell you for days - 661 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:15,520 I'm glad you're here. 662 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:17,480 Thank you, Carrie. 663 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,320 I blame myself so much for Mark's first marriage. 664 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:24,680 But Carrie, you aren't... - Yes. I picked Eleanor for Mark. 665 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:28,160 I thought him very wild and unsettled and I made up my mind and his 666 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,160 that he had to be married for his own good. 667 00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:31,080 But... 668 00:56:34,720 --> 00:56:36,760 I think I'll have that cigarette. 669 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:44,640 I watched Mark at the party yesterday. He must love you very much. 670 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:46,280 Thank you, Carrie. 671 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:54,920 You know, as a child Mark was very like David - emotional, over-sensitive. 672 00:56:55,800 --> 00:57:00,040 I remember once when he was only ten I locked him in his room, just to tease him. 673 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:06,320 When he was let out he was beside himself, screaming and crying with rage. 674 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:14,080 Are you deaf? Well, answer me! I won't put up with your snooping any longer. 675 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:16,280 What did you think you'd find in my room? 676 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,440 Stop reading when I'm talking to you. What did you think you'd find? 677 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,000 Take that smirk off your face and answer me! 678 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:27,440 What are you afraid I could find? 679 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,120 You miserable, disgusting little brat! 680 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:31,160 Mark, no! 681 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,120 Mark, you can't - he's only a child! 682 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:37,960 I've got to, Celia.

Celia, I think you're right: We do have to talk about David. 760 01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:49,200 - Yes, Mark. - That wasn't our first quarrel. 761 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:54,800 I like him, really, but sometimes I feel he rejects me and that does something to me. 762 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:56,680 I feel a sort of frenzy. 763 01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:02,880 And... when you defended him... Celia, you mean so much to me. 764 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:12,080 What about David? - Well, I've been thinking, darling - 765 01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:15,840 everything here reminds him of his mother.

I have to shave, anyway. 775 01:07:57,160 --> 01:08:00,000 Hello, Edith... 776 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,880 Why can't Miss Robey go with me?

The bed she died in. David is right - 787 01:11:04,440 --> 01:11:09,560 but no, this room is a copy. 788 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:13,240 The others are actual rooms. 789 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:15,840 What can it mean? 790 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:41,120 Where are her things, the little things that made the room hers? 791 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:43,440 Isn't the room finished? 792 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:54,440 But Mark said it was finished. 793 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:04,040 Oh, Mark, darling -you blame yourself, you torture yourself. 794 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:08,840 You think you killed because you couldn't give her love. 795 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:13,640 That's why the room is only a copy- you couldn't kill. 796 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:20,280 The candles! 797 01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:23,400 It's my room! 798 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:26,560 It's waiting for me! 799 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:34,960 Don Ignacio's room. 800 01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:37,280 I saw light in your rooms. 801 01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:41,920 I want to get away, I want to leave. 802 01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:44,480 I'll get your coat. 803 01:14:07,440 --> 01:14:11,320 It's miles to the station.

What can I answer when I'm asked if the murder was premeditated? 812 01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:33,720 Premeditated? I planned it all my life. 813 01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:38,920 The record shows that you met your wife only this spring in Mexico. 814 01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:44,520 Yes. I loved her very much and, somehow... 815 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:49,480 I felt as though I had been searching for her all my life. 816 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,120 - To kill her! - No, I... 817 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:54,680 That... came later. 818 01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:59,080 There is a rumour that you also killed your first wife, Eleanor. 819 01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:06,160 No. I blamed myself - that's why I built the room. 820 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:13,000 She died because I didn't love her - and maybe, unconsciously, 821 01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:19,800 I wanted her to die, but no man is responsible for his unconscious thoughts. 822 01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:24,120 If you aren't responsible for your thoughts, who is? 823 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:29,400 A man thinks according to the life he's led. All my life I was dominated by women. 824 01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:34,600 As a child, by my mother.

The impulse to kill faded. 833 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:22,080 I thought I'd dreamed it. Then, when she met me at the station 834 01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:28,080 at Levender Falls, I felt a deep, gentle kind of love. 835 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:34,200 Until...

I love her but, so help me God, 842 01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:03,640 if Celia were here, I'd still have to kill her. 843 01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:14,880 Oh, Mr Mark, you didn't answer. 844 01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:18,680 Miss Caroline wonders, are you coming down to breakfast? 845 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:27,600 Breakfast... tell Miss Caroline I'll come down. 846 01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:35,320 Mark, I cannot run an organized household without some kind of co-operation. 847 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:39,880 I'm taking David to New York today and I have to do the breakfast dishes before I leave. 848 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,200 Andy and Sarah are going to Levender Falls for the grain celebration. 849 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:45,920 No-one has the slightest consideration for me. 850 01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:49,960 Miss Robey overslept. Celia isn't even in her room. 851 01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:52,840 - I know. She won't be here for breakfast. 852 01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:01,960 Miss Robey. 853 01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:07,080 Make out your final check. I want you to leave Blaze Creek as soon as possible. 854 01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:08,240 Mark! 855 01:20:08,440 --> 01:20:12,040 - I ask a certain amount of loyalty of my employees. Miss Robey has demonstrated, 856 01:20:12,600 --> 01:20:15,880 very plainly, that she will go to some lengths to deceive me. 857 01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:18,240 She told you. 858 01:20:19,480 --> 01:20:22,640 I was stupid enough to trust her when she said she wouldn't. 859 01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:25,680 Now you don't have to be grateful any more. 860 01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:28,600 What does she mean? 861 01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:31,440 Who told you what? 862 01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:35,040 What did she do, Mark? 863 01:20:36,040 --> 01:20:42,520 She tried to interfere in my life and I'm sick and tired of interference. 864 01:20:42,920 --> 01:20:46,920 - Yes, but... I always thought she... 865 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:52,680 but Mark, now I'll have to stay. I gather from your attitude that Celia has gone somewhere. 866 01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:57,040 I can't possibly ask Andy and Sarah to stay. They've been looking forward to the celebration for weeks. 867 01:20:57,240 --> 01:20:58,600 You'll be alone. 868 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:01,440 I want to be alone - 869 01:21:02,160 --> 01:21:06,480 and for the first time in your life, Carrie, I'm going to have what I want. 870 01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:51,920 I thought you left, last night. 871 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:54,360 - I did. 872 01:21:55,400 --> 01:22:00,040 I ran in to Bob on the lawn.
