在做宵夜吗 老兄
Midnight snack, old chap?
梅根
Megan!
理查德·赛明顿 我以你谋杀你妻子
Richard Symmington, I am arresting you for murder your wife,
莫娜·赛明顿和爱葛妮丝·布朗三人
Mona Symmington and Agnes Brown.
及蓄意谋杀你的继女梅根·亨特的罪名逮捕你
And the attempted murder of your stepdaughter, Megan Hunter.
梅根 你还好吗
Megan, are you all right?
很顺利对吧
Went rather well, didn't it?
对不起
I'm sorry.
她真勇敢
What a brave girl.
她可能会没命
She could have died.
但是有些事必须做
Something had to be done.
因为没有证据可以指证
There was no evidence against this clever
这个狡猾而无♥耻♥的人
and unscrupulous man.
我需要有人帮我 而梅根就是最佳人选
I needed someone to help me. Megan fitted the bill perfectly.
太冒险了
It was too risky.
在所有人当中 伯顿先生
Of all people, Mr Burton,
你应该明白 我们来到这个世界
you should know that we are not put into this world
并不只是为了在危险的时候去逃避
to avoid danger when lives are at stake.
正如我说的
As I was saying,
实际上唯一的事实就是赛明顿夫人死了
the only actual fact was Mrs Symmington died,
而且这种情况下
and I'm afraid the very first person one
最先应该怀疑的人就是丈夫
thinks of in such a case is the husband.
当然了 他得有动机 通常是另一个女人
Of course, there has to be a motive, usually another woman.
然而我们有赫兰德小姐
And there we have Miss Holland.
一个光芒四射的年轻尤物
A radiant young creature,
突然闯入了这个压抑 饥渴男人的生活
suddenly entering the life of this repressed, dry man.
他想得到她
He wanted her,
但他也不想失去他的名誉 他的孩子
but he also wanted his reputation, his children,
他的家 和他的尊严
his home, his respectability.
所以他准备付出的代价就是谋杀
And the price he was prepared to pay for that was murder.
在把打印机捐给妇女协会之前
He typed all the envelopes
他已经打好了所有的信封
before donating the machine to the Women's Institute.
伯顿先生 当你注意到
You unwittingly hit upon this, Mr Burton,
你姐姐信封上的U
when you noticed
是由A改过来的时候 就无意中发现了这一点
that U had been changed from an A on your sister's envelope,
那原本是寄给巴顿小姐的
originally addressed to Miss Barton.
而且从巴顿小姐的书里撕走那些书页并不难
And taking pages from Miss Barton's book would have been easy.
他去她家给她财政方面的建议
He visited her on more than one occasion
可不止一两回
to give advice on financial matters.
但就是你告诉我的
But it was what you told me
关于赫兰德小姐的事 才是整个事件的关键
about Miss Holland that was the most important thing of all.
那就是她从来没收到过恐吓信
That she had never received a letter.
这暴露了赛明顿的弱点
it exposed Mr Symmington's one weakness.
他怎么舍得给他爱的姑娘写恐吓信呢
How could he write a foul letter to the girl he loved?
我从来不相信有完美的谋杀这种事
I've never believed there's such a thing as perfect murder.
总会有什么地方出错的
There's always been something doesn't quite fit.
比如那封遗书
That suicide note, for example.
跟本就不对头
It was all wrong.
人要留遗书 不可能留在一张破纸条上
People don't leave suicide notes on scraps of paper.
而且我觉得那正是困扰你的原因
And I think that's what bothered you,
伯顿先生 关于你妹妹的留言
Mr Burton, about your sister's message.
如果欧文打电♥话♥问的话
If Owen rings up...
我不能
I can't go on...
周二去 但周三或周四可以
Tuesday, but could manage Wednesday or Thursday.
我明白了
I see.
赛明顿先生一定是无意中发现了
Mr Symmington must have come across
他妻子的这张字条
such a message from his wife,
觉得可行就一直存着 等到时机成熟
saw its possibilities and kept it for when the time came.
终于 他决定趁仆人不在家的时候
Finally, he decided to stage the real thing.
实施计划
on the servants' day off.
在他上班之前
Before going to work,
他在他妻子治神经痛吃的胶囊里
he put cyanide in the cachet his wife
放了氰化物
would have taken for her neuralgia,
然后当他跟赫兰德小姐和孩子们
then he'd have got back to the empty house
一起到家的时候 又返回了那间空房♥间
at the same time as Miss Holland and the boys.
为了让事件看起来是自杀
He put a little cyanide in his wife's glass
他放了一点氰化物在他妻子的杯子里
to make it look like suicide,
留下纸条 把恐吓信丢在壁炉里
planted the note, and threw the poison-pen letter in grate.
但他不知道的是
But what he didn't know was...
爱葛妮丝因为跟她男朋友吵了架
was that little Agnes had, in fact, come home early,
提早回来了
after a quarrel with her young man.
她站在窗户那里
She stood at the window,
等着男朋友来跟她和好
waiting for her young man to come and make it up.
那她看到什么了
And she saw something?
正好相反 她什么也没看见
On the contrary, she saw nothing.
那就是关键
That's the point.
没人来家里 邮递员没来 谁也没来
No-one came to the house. Not the postman, not anybody.
当时她意识到 如果赛明顿夫人
And in time she realised how odd this was
那天下午收到信的话
if Mrs Symmington was supposed to
就太奇怪了
receive the letter that afternoon
帕屈吉小姐
Miss Partridge?
我是爱葛妮丝
It's Agnes.
是这样的 上个星期 夫人死的那天
The thing is, last week, the day the mistress died...
有些事我不明白
There's something I don't understand,
有些事说不通
that don't quite add up.
那可怜的女孩看到了什么 知道了什么
The wretched girl had seen something, knew something,
而他不想冒一丝风险
and he couldn't afford to take any chances.
他假装离开家
He pretended to leave the house...
等到爱葛妮丝一个人的时候
...and waited till Agnes was alone.
那艾美的事怎么解释
What about Aimee?
警♥察♥确实看到了她写信
The police actually saw her write letter.
艾美·格里菲斯一直在爱着赛明顿先生
Aimee Griffith has been in love with Mr Symmington all her life.
我都没看出来 - 可怜的人
Well, I never! - Poor thing!
之后就出现了艾尔思·赫兰德的流言
Then the gossip began about Elsie Holland.
艾美把她看成一个狡猾的风♥骚♥♥女♥人
Aimee would have seen her as a designing minx,
半点都配不上她深爱的迪克
quite unworthy of her beloved Dickie.
为什么不再写一封匿名信 把她吓走呢
Why not one more anonymous letter, frighten the girl away?
当赛明顿先生听到警♥察♥看到她写信的事
When Mr Symmington heard the police had actually seen her,
他都不敢相信自己如此幸运
he couldn't believe his luck.
在她被捕后 他找到了个由头
After her arrest, he'd have found an excuse
返回格里菲斯的房♥子 留下那些书页
to return to the Griffith house and plant the pages,
让案件板上钉钉
thus clinching the case.
看起来就是这样了
And that would seem to be that.
这件可怕的事终于结束了
An end, at last, to this frightful business.
还真是多事的恢复期啊 伯顿先生
Quite an eventful convalescence, Mr Burton.
对啊
Yes.
都好了吗
Everything mended now?
骨头都愈合了吧
No bones still broken?
是的 都愈合了
No bones broken, no.
阿普尔顿·H 上校 1♥8♥9♥2 - 1952
COL.H.APPLETON 1♥8♥9♥2 - 1952
赛明顿家的孩子们下学期就要去学校了
The Symmington boys start school next term.
估计这样最好
Probably for the best.
孩子们很快就能恢复的
Children are very resilient.
长大了就难了 我总觉得
More than their elders, I often think.
我猜你姐姐想留下
Your sister intends staying, I gather.
留一阵子 是的
For a while, yes.
看她愿不愿意做一个医生的妻子
To see if she might take to being a doctor's wife.
我有点怀疑
Somehow I doubt it.
爱请会让我们做出奇怪的事
Love makes us do the strangest things.
你呢 伯顿先生 你有什么打算
And you, Mr Burton, what about you?
我打算离开
I'm going away.
去做什么
To do what?
我也不清楚
Do you know, I haven't a clue.
我想我会找到事情做的
I expect I'll find something.
也许你正在寻觅的东西就近在眼前
Perhaps what you're looking for is right here under your nose.
她拒绝我了 马普尔小姐
She doesn't want me, Miss Marple.
懦夫 伯顿先生
Faint heart, Mr Burton.
以前我也放开过一个人
I once let someone go.
他得到了委任
He had commitments, you see...
要去打仗
...a war to fight.
