fool!
Well, Wanda, there are three...
Not Wanda Gershwitz?
Yes.
My God. What?
You're his alibi! I can't talk to
you! Why not? My dear young lady...
..you're a defence witness!
You must leave. Why? It's not
ethical for me to talk to a witness!
Everyone does it in America.
Please leave,
or I may have to give up the case.
Please?
Oh, Archie...
I didn't come here today to talk
about boring criminal procedures.
Come on! You know!
You knew the minute
I walked in here!
I want you.
What?
BUZZER
Hello? 'Sir John is here.'
Show him in. Make love with me.
'Pardon?' Nothing!
Take me to bed, Archie. No, sorry.
Bye, Uncle!
Hi!

He's pleading "Not Guilty",
so you're safe until the trial.
Leach doesn't think he did it.
Ken says there's
a safe deposit box key,
but only George knows where it is.
"Thank you, Wanda(!)"
What have YOU found out?
Not a lot. You realise he's
in court tomorrow? I know that!
So nothing, huh? Nichts!
Zip...
Diddly... Bubkas...
Niente!
It's too big! No, it isn't, Portia.
It's enormous! No, it isn't!
Please, Mother. Absolutely not!
I'm so miserable and you just
don't care! Do shut up, Portia!
People complain to me all day!
Oh, dear.

Archie, I want you to speak to her
about plastic surgery. Hmm?
I wish you'd listen. I want you to
speak to Portia. I'll speak to her
in the morning. Good night, Archie.
Good night, Archie!
Good night, Wanda!
Good night who?
Sorry, darling. Just a stupid case
I've got tomorrow with some old hag.
Are you George Francis Thomason
of Kipling Mansions, London W9?
Yes, sir.
Charged with armed robbery.
Sit down.
Are we ready for a committal claim?
Yes, it will be under 6-2.
That is correct.
Here are the statements.
To be fully bound, please.
Stand up, Mr Thomason.
You are hereby committed to stand
trial at the central criminal court.
There is some urgency
about this case, madam.
The main witness, Mrs Eileen Cody,
has had heart difficulties recently.
Might this case be put down
for an early trial?
The listings officer will decide.
Take him to the cell.
Hi, hon. You look great! I love
your hair! Time for a coffee?
No. Have you considered it, though?
Why did he give you this? "Eileen
Cody, 69, Basil Street"? Is it to
send her flowers? Do her shopping?
Rub her out?
He wants you to rub her out?
He's going to kill her!
LAUGHS MANIACALLY
Fuck off, or I'll kill YOU!
Limey fruits!
So the old lady's going to m-meet
with an accident, eh, K-Ken? Sssh!
What's so funny? Nothing. It's just
that wasting old ladies isn't nice!
It's better than...buggering people!
I bet you a pound
you don't kill her!
All right. All right.
I love watching your ass when you
walk. Is that beautiful or what?
Don't go near him! He's mine!
A pound says you won't kill her!
When could you look at it?
Thursday is hopeless.
My wife's going to the opera
Friday night. I'll look at it then.
Thanks, Archie.
Hi. I know we're not allowed
to talk. Give me a call. I can't!
Please.
I'm not allowed to speak.
You don't have to. I don't
want you for your conversation.
Look, I'd love to, but...

Otto, what are you doing?
Buddhist meditation. It focuses
aggression. The monks did it before
battle. What kind of buddhism is it?
HORN BLARES
Asshole!
It's an early Tantric meditation...
What is this? To get information I
might have to get friendly with him.
We're ready now at last.
Enjoy the opera, darling. Supper's
in the fridge, Archie. Be good.
What does "friendly" mean?
Cordial? Courteous?
Supportive? What?
I don'
