(DISTANT SHOUTING)
185
00:17:45,450 --> 00:17:47,249
Good morning, Mr. Vole.
186
00:17:47,250 --> 00:17:50,009
My name is John Mayhew. I'm
here to offer my services
187
00:17:50,010 --> 00:17:52,369
- as your legal representative.
- Yes! Yes, please.
188
00:17:52,370 --> 00:17:55,169
I don't understand, they're saying
I did it and I didn't do it, I swear.
189
00:17:55,170 --> 00:17:57,849
- I swear I didn't do it.
- My initial fee will be ten shillings.
190
00:17:57,850 --> 00:18:01,049
I don't have money... I don't have
any money, but, look, I have this.
191
00:18:01,050 --> 00:18:03,489
Please! She gave it to me.
192
00:18:03,490 --> 00:18:05,049
Take this.
193
00:18:05,050 --> 00:18:07,489
- Here. Can you use this?
- Out of the way. Stand back.
194
00:18:07,490 --> 00:18:08,809
Please!
195
00:18:08,810 --> 00:18:12,329
- Oh, course it's you, lurking about down here.
- Where are you taking him?

197
00:18:13,970 --> 00:18:16,849
But I'm going to need time with
my client to ascertain the facts.
198
00:18:16,850 --> 00:18:20,409
These are the facts. I've been up
all night, the body's barely cold...
199
00:18:20,410 --> 00:18:21,489
Can I have a moment...
200
00:18:21,490 --> 00:18:24,489
...I've already got the commissioner
and the press crawling up my arse.
201
00:18:24,490 --> 00:18:27,809
- Detective Breem, I just want a minute, please!
- This way.
202
00:18:27,810 --> 00:18:29,729
Detective Breem, leading the investigation.
203
00:18:29,730 --> 00:18:32,129
Double E in the spelling, yeah? Double E.
204
00:18:32,130 --> 00:18:34,009
I'm sick of you bastards getting it wrong.
205
00:18:34,010 --> 00:18:36,449
- Mr. Breem, can you give us a bit more information?
- Double E.
206
00:18:36,450 --> 00:18:38,369
Why's the commissioner so interested?
207
00:18:38,370 --> 00:18:40,369
This isn't some tuppenny-ha'penny tart
208
00:18:40,370 --> 00:18:42,369
clubbed to death in the back of an alley.
209
00:18:42,370 --> 00:18:45,289
This is a rich lady. Society lady.
210
00:18:45,290 --> 00:18:49,089
Thank you, sir. Now her
brains are sprayed up the wall.
211

later, blood still steaming.

Where have they taken her?
214
00:18:55,890 --> 00:18:59,049
She's in the morgue,
waiting for the coroner.
215
00:18:59,050 --> 00:19:01,849
I need to be with her.
She needs to be washed.
216
00:19:01,850 --> 00:19:03,929
- I can make her hair look nice.
- Nah. Nah.
217
00:19:03,930 --> 00:19:06,849
They'll do all that, you go in
and sit down. She's in safe hands.
218
00:19:06,850 --> 00:19:11,009
No, I have to do it. I have
to do it! She's my lady!
219
00:19:11,010 --> 00:19:16,009
I look after her! I take
care of her, not strangers!
220

looking at her and prodding her!

She's mine!
222

- She needs me, she's mine!
223

She's mine!
224
00:19:25,970 --> 00:19:29,569
Make her a cuppa tea, for God's
sake! What's the matter with you?
225
00:19:29,570 --> 00:19:32,529
The maid. She found it all.
226
00:19:32,530 --> 00:19:35,689
- Right mess.
- I want to read her statement.
227

There you are. Knock yourself out.
228
00:19:39,530 --> 00:19:42,449
Your boy is a no-mark chancer.
229

He hasn't got a pot to piss in.
230
00:19:44,930 --> 00:19:46,249

I'm sure there's plenty of...

She's buying him clothes,
shoes, whatever he wants.
233

Within three months, she's made
her will, naming him for everything.
234
00:19:59,210 --> 00:20:01,489
That doesn't make him a murderer.
235
00:20:01,490 --> 00:20:04,169
Well, he'd burned a shirt in the grate.
236
00:20:04,170 --> 00:20:08,289
I mean, who burns a shirt unless
they've got something to hide?
237

Like blood.
238
00:20:10,610 --> 00:20:14,249
He opened her skull
like a tin of peaches...
239
00:20:14,250 --> 00:20:16,150

My wife. Romaine. I was with her.

I was with her! She can tell
them and all this can be over.

you as her sole beneficiary?

No, I had no idea.
261
00:21:31,570 --> 00:21:34,369
So you visited her house that night...
262
00:21:34,370 --> 00:21:35,929
Why are you asking me this?
263
00:21:35,930 --> 00:21:39,409
I've told you already that I was
at home with Romaine by 09:30.

Christ, she doesn't know about any of this!

Look, will you tell her that I'm sorry?

Tell her that I'm so, so sorry.

Mr. Vole, wives can speak neither for
nor against their husbands in court.

If Emily wasn't upset and we parted friends

then maybe she'd
recommend me as a chauffeur

from, the new clothes?
