Dog Altogether (2007) - full transcript
Joseph is a man plagued by a violence and rage who is driving him to self destruction. As he falls further into turmoil, Joseph scours the landscape in search of a single grain of redemption that might restore hope to his fractured life.

Where are you taking me?
To the garden of
earthly delights.
Change? What kind of change?
I'm not sure, exactly.
When H.G. Wells was visiting,
he made a most peculiar comment.
He said that he could tell
there was something
missing from my life
and that he hoped
I would find it.
That's rather
presumptuous of him.
Yes, it was.
The odd thing is...
he was right.
You're so beautiful.
I dream about you every night.
Oh, Luther.
But I thought you
loved your work.
I do.
And it goes without saying
that I enjoy working with you.
But I'm a doctor,
William, not a detective.
You'd make a very
good one, however.
If you like, I could put a word
in with the superintendent.
I was the only woman attending
medical school in Montreal.
And it was very important
to me that I succeed.
And you have.
I'm the only one from my
class still cutting up cadavers.
The Hippocratic Oath
was wasted on me.
What is it? What did I do?
There are a hundred
good doctors in this town,
but only one that
can do what you do.
William.
Julia, you have a gift.
I thank you for that, but
this is not just about my work.
What, then?
It appears we're needed again.
She hasn't been here long.
Fewer than 12
hours, I'd estimate.
She was strangled.
So it would appear.
What have you, George?
This young lad and his lady
friend found the body, sir.
What were they doing out here?
Just having a stroll in
the woods, so they say.
No blood, no
signs of a struggle.
Perhaps the body
was moved here, sir.
At least we know who she was.
"Miss Abigail Tunstall."
And an address
on Wellesley Street.
Oh, my.
Sir, according to Miss
Tunstall's landlady,
she was a kitchen hand.
Quite the wardrobe
for a kitchen hand.
I daresay.
I can't imagine she
was chopping cabbage
or curdling cheese
in these fineries.
How did she afford all
of this clothing, I wonder?
Well, perhaps, sir, she's
just one of those women
who can really spot a bargain.
You know, my Aunt Primrose says
that any girl can
dress like a lady
if she has an eye for value.
A true font of
wisdom, your aunt.
Not according to my Aunt Iris,
who has a rather low
opinion of Aunt Primrose.
Called her a gluttonous
imbecile once.
Not to her face, but...
George, how many
aunts do you have?
Oh, let's see.
There's Aunt Amaryllis,
Aunt Aster, Aunt Azalea,
Aunt Begonia, Aunt Bryony.
Thank you, George.
Oh, sir, that's just
the A's and B's.
You can fill me in on the
C's through Z another time.
Well, I'll look forward to that.
We'll have some tea.
Oh, my goodness.
Sir, I think you'll want
to have a look at these.
Oh, my.
Rather saucy.
Indeed.
Looks like our girl was
into some risky business.
Yes. Perhaps that's the reason
why Miss Tunstall
has turned up dead.
She died some time between
midnight and 2:00 a.m.
What can you tell me
about her attacker?
A man, judging by
the size of the hand.
And a few inches taller
than her, by the angle.
Any other injuries?
Any interference?
No sign of that.
Small comfort.
Such a beautiful girl.
Such a pity she had
to end up this way.
Not entirely unexpected.
Oh, William, just
because she posed
for titillating
picture postcards.
It's a fact that women
in this line of work
invite unhealthy attention.
They "invite" it?
Well, attract it.
Pornography sets men's
minds to dark urges.
From what you've described,
the postcards in question
were hardly pornographic.
Yes, well, perhaps they were
more than enough for her killer.
You'll have my report
by the end of the day.
Very good.
Dr. Julia Ogden.
Dr. Folwell.
Yes, I did receive your letter.
Tomorrow evening
would be perfect.
I look forward to it.
Okay, lads, let's
have those back.
No, no, no, here.
Give me those.
Give.
Oh, very funny.
Have some respect for
the dead for Pete's sake.
Oi! Oi! What's all the racket?
Sir, I...
Whatever it is you're up to,
pack it in and get back to work.
And, Crabtree, I expect
you to set a better example.
- Me, sir?
- Murdoch.
You and Happy Dafty, my office.
Happy Dafty!
What did you do?
Well, what's this girl's story?
Miss Tunstall
worked in the kitchen
at the King's Goose Tavern.
She finished her shift
and left just after midnight.
Some bloke followed her out?
No one saw anything.
Any boyfriends?
According to her
workmates at the tavern,
there was no one special.
Let me see these.
Hmm.
Nice.
Inspector, really.
I was referring to the
quality of the work.
The composition is professional,
and the paper stock is...
Well, the paper
stock is top-notch.
The paper stock, sir.
First thing I noticed.
Judging by these,
I'd suggest a visit to my
old friend Marcus Evans.
Ah. That's perfect.
I thought I told you to
shut this place down.
- George, the girls.
- Ladies.
It's a pleasure to see you
again, Sergeant Brackenreid.
It's inspector.
Moving up in the world, I see.
Unlike you, Evans, still
crawling around in the gutter.
- Let me see this camera.
- Not my camera.
Shift, Evans. It's evidence.
Evidence of what? My
work is purely artistic.
Artistic.
Tell that to the wives of the
husbands who buy your trash.
Oh, and this time, it's not
just about saucy postcards.
Perhaps you
recognize this woman.
Abigail. What of her?
She's one of your models, then.
Was.
She quit awhile ago. I
haven't seen her since.
She's been found dead, Marcus.
Any theories?
Oh, no.
Oh, poor Abby.
Mr. Evans, do you know of anyone
who may have wanted
to harm Miss Tunstall?
No one.
She was... Everybody liked Abby.
Except whoever did her in.
Sirs, I've taken their
names and addresses.
I'll get full statements once
they get some clothes on.
Grab any negatives, Crabtree.
Please. I can't afford
to replace those.
And the camera.
Not the camera, Inspector.
This is my livelihood.
A young lady in
your employ is dead.
I think it's time for a
career change, sunshine.
Miss.
Is there something else, Miss...
Mahoney.
Moira Mahoney.
Miss Mahoney.
You knew Abigail, didn't you?
Yes.
Me and Abby were pals.
In that case, I'm terribly
sorry for your loss.
Have you any idea who
may have wanted to harm her?
No, but...
The thing is, when
Abby quit here,
she went on to something else.
Something else?
There was an apartment.
Abby took men there.
She asked me if
I wanted in on it.
I thought about it.
Miss Mahoney, it's all right.
I'm only interested in who may
have wanted to harm Abigail.
I went along once,
but changed my mind
before I ever went inside.
It was... It wasn't right.
Do you recall the address?
It looks like a
doxie's digs, sir.
It certainly does.
It would appear Miss Tunstall
was involved in more
than just cheeky pictures.
What did you find, George?
Just a small kitchen
and a water closet.
A darkroom.
Yes, but the question is, what's
it doing in a doxie's apartment?
A hobby, perhaps?
George, go and turn
the light on in the boudoir.
George, come and
have a look at this.
Oh, my goodness!
A mirror you can
see right through.
It's a half-silvered
mirror, George,
used in scientific experiments
to split beams of light.
I suspect the use in this case
is somewhat less scrupulous.
Sir, imagine we had
one of these at the station
in the interview room.
We would be able
to observe suspects
without them ever
knowing we were there.
Yes, but in this case,
I believe the intention was
to take photographs of people
without their knowledge.
People in the bed.
Yes, George.
What have you there, sir?
A hinge.
This is a camera?
It's no bigger than a cigar box.
Remarkable, isn't it?
It's the latest from the
Eastman Kodak Company...
The Pocket Kodak.
But the plates? How do they fit?
Oh, sir, plates are
a thing of the past.
George Eastman has introduced
a new type of flexible film
made of cellulose.
It stays inside the camera.
What will they think of next?
So, what are you doing?
You've been at
that half an hour.
Trying out different
combinations.
I thought you'd cracked it.
And what's the bloody
stethoscope for?
Oh, sir, you can hear the
bolt pass over the first tumbler.
The other two are trial
and error, I'm afraid.
Well, that's 60 numbers.
Times another 60.
Yes, and each number has a
leeway of one digit either side,
making it a total of
400 combinations
of which I have tried 76.
Murdoch, just drill
the bloody thing.
Don't look so smug.
What's inside?
Money.
Photographs.
Oh, my.
Oh.
These make Evans' postcards
look like an invitation
to a church social.
Look closer, sir.
Good God.
Alderman Merrick.
Clarence Chislett,
the district court justice.
Ooh, I'll be years
trying to forget these.
A record was kept of
the names and addresses.
All important toffs.
Was it blackmail, then?
I'd be willing to wager
these men would
pay a lot of money
to be sure these
photographs were never seen.
And it wouldn't take much
for a beauty like Miss Tunstall
to lure them back
to the apartment.
I wonder who took these photos?
This could be our answer
now. What have you, George?
Sir, according to the landlord,
the apartment was leased two
months ago by a John Smith.
John Smith.
John Smith, George.
Clearly, that's
not his real name.
Oh.
So, how do we find him?
George, this is a
brand-new camera.
Telegraph the Eastman
Kodak Company
and find out which
stores in Toronto
carry this specific model.
Sir, right away.
Dangerous game
they were playing.
One of these "clients" could
have done Miss Tunstall in?
Yes.
They would have had motive.
We'll interview all of them.
Tread carefully, Murdoch.
These "gentlemen"
carry a lot of clout.
More of the same?
No.
These photographs
were taken elsewhere.
Different vintage, older.
Why, yes, Mrs. Pendrick.
Is this a social call?
How wonderful.
Ice water?
Sir.
Sir, it's Sally Pendrick.
Detective Murdoch.
What fiendish crime of mine
brings you here this time?
Mr. Pendrick.
I apologize for my
unannounced visit.
What do you think of my
latest concept, Detective?
The Toronto of the future.
Millions of people living in
fully self-sufficient towers,
connected by a vast grid
of underground railways
and elevated paths,
fed by endless
acres of rooftop farms.
Whole generations never
need set a foot outside,
working and playing
in the sheltered security
of their tower communities.
That's fascinating.
Actually, I'm here to
speak with your wife.
I see.
And I trust you don't
intend to accuse her
of some dastardly deed.
Not at all.
I have an art question for her.
Ah.
One of those
urgent art questions.
At any rate...
Wait here.
I'll see if I can find her.
Art question.
A model of the solar system.
You and James,
both fascinated by such things.
Mrs. Pendrick.
To what do I owe the pleasure?
Actually, it's imperative
that I speak to you
in the utmost privacy.
Certainly.
What could possibly
demand such intimacy?
This.
Oh, my God.
It was found during the
course of a murder investigation.
- Murder?
- Yes.
A young woman
named Abigail Tunstall
was found murdered yesterday.
Possibly by the man who
took these photographs.
I...
I'm sorry. I must sit.
Yes, of course.
I was young and
without prospects.
He offered me money.
Good money.
Who did?
His name was Colin McTavish.
He kept an apartment in Albany.
I was to bring men
to the apartment
and entice them to disrobe.
That was all.
I never prostituted myself.
You must believe me.
Did you know he was blackmailing
the men in the photographs?
I didn't want to know.
But it doesn't surprise me.
He's been blackmailing me.
Apparently, he saw
my photo in The Gazette
and remembered me.
He threatened to show
the photos to James.
How much?
So far, $1,500.
So far?
Well, he keeps
coming back to the well
every couple of months.
I'm due for a
payment any day now.
Why didn't you come to me?
I was ashamed, of course.
If only one could erase all the
poor decisions of one's past.
Should this Colin McTavish
contact you again...
I'll let you know immediately.
Detective Murdoch?
I beg you not to
mention this to James.
He knows nothing of my past.
It would devastate him.
Uh, sir.
I spoke with a retailer who said
he sold a black
leather Pocket Kodak
just three weeks ago.
Oh. Have we a name, George?
The buyer was a
Mr. McTavish. First initial C.
Said he was a
nature photographer.
Well, that's one way
of putting it, I suppose.
The initial C stands for Colin.
He hails from New York State.
He's been blackmailing
Mrs. Pendrick as well.
That's quite the
gold mine, there, sir.
Indeed.
But if the past
is any indication,
he'll be back for more.
And then we'll have him.
Colin McTavish.
Do you think
he's our killer, sir?
He could be.
But then, so could any of
the men in those photographs.
Have we identified them all?
Uh, all except
for this fellow, sir.
And his name wasn't
on the list you found.
Keep looking, George.
Sir.
You seem cheerful.
Do I?
I must have forgotten myself.
I came by to see
if you would like to have a
walk with me this evening.
We never got a chance to
finish our conversation yesterday.
Yes.
I would love to, truly, but
I have an engagement.
Ah. A meeting?
A dinner, actually.
With a colleague.
A business dinner.
Perhaps another time, then.
Yes. Yes, another time.
- Sir.
- What have you learned, George?
Sir, all the men confirmed
are receiving copies of
the photographs in the mail.
Along with threats to
make the photographs public
if the monies weren't paid.
You're correct, sir.
$50 in most cases,
mailed to a post-office
box here in town.
$50 is substantial but
hardly worth killing over.
- I - shouldn't think so, sir.
Alibis?
They all gave a complete
account of their actions
the day Miss Tunstall
was murdered,
including Judge Chislett,
who, in fact, admitted
to accosting
Mr. Evans at one point,
thinking that Evans was
behind the blackmail note.
But you found
them to be truthful?
I think so, sir.
Embarrassed, mostly.
At any rate, I have Higgins
confirming their alibis.
Discreetly I hope.
Although one of these
men could be our killer,
the rest are simply
victims of blackmail.
Of course, sir.
Excuse me, sir.
Colin McTavish was released
from New York State Penitentiary
last June.
They're sending his
Bertillon measurements.
Thank you, Constable Worsley.
Well, that would explain
McTavish's sudden re-emergence.
"Dear Sally, I very much
enjoyed our last meeting
and thought it was
time we meet up again
unless you'd prefer that your
husband learn your true nature."
As frightening as
this is, Mrs. Pendrick,
it's precisely
what I'd hoped for.
I want him apprehended
as badly as you do.
Will I be required to testify?
We have him on a number
of other blackmail charges,
and he's our number-one
suspect in Miss Tunstall's murder.
I see no reason for you
to have to take the stand.
He's expecting you at 8:00.
I suggest we leave
at quarter to the hour.
So I meet him, give him
the money, and leave.
We'll have other
men posted nearby.
The moment you're
clear, they'll move in.
And I'll be safe?
McTavish has no
reason to harm you, Sally.
It's clear he intends to
continue demanding money.
I'll put an end to that tonight.
Dr. Julia Ogden, I presume.
- Why, yes.
- I'm Dr. Martin Folwell.
I'm delighted to
meet you in person.
Thank you.
So, what shall you have? A
glass of champagne perhaps?
Champagne?
Well, I am endeavoring
to woo you, Dr. Ogden.
You must allow me my methods.
We'll be late.
He'll wait.
Of all the outcomes I
ever imagined for myself,
here I am with my
future dependent
on the retrieval of
a sordid photograph.
There's a certain
dark humor in it.
Yes, I suppose.
I do wish you hadn't learned
of my indiscretions, Detective.
That's long in the past.
Yes.
But your respect means
a great deal to me.
I just hope...
My respect for you
is undiminished.
To your lovely city.
I do believe it is almost
as attractive as Buffalo.
Yes, I've heard it said.
Well, I'm most interested
to hear more about your
new hospital, of course.
The Children's
Hospital of Buffalo.
A nurturing environment
dedicated to our
most vulnerable.
We have high hopes.
Well, I imagine it would be
quite effective to have a staff
dedicated solely to the
treatment of children.
That's it, precisely.
And as I mentioned in my letter,
such a progressive hospital
would do well to have
a female physician
as our head of
pediatric surgery.
Is that something that
you would consider?
I used to sing.
Growing up in Montreal,
my dream was to
become a famous soloist.
I was quite good, actually.
Unfortunately, my
parents thought singing
to be a sordid career choice.
So I ran away to New York.
Took some voice lessons.
I did a bit of performing.
You didn't pursue it?
I ran out of money.
Living in New York City, I
could barely feed myself.
Do you know what
that's like, Detective?
I can only imagine.
I was hungry,
alone, and terrified.
Easy prey for someone
like Colin McTavish.
He convinced me
that I could support
my singing career
if I moved to Albany
to start working for him.
And I believed him.
How I regret that now.
That's close enough. Driver!
Whoa!
Right. The warehouse
is just ahead.
Return immediately upon
completing the transaction.
I have men posted all
around the warehouse.
They won't make a move
until you're safely out.
Sally!
Sally!
Sally, can you hear me?
Sally?
What happened?
There was an explosion.
Are you all right?
I think.
It's just a small cut.
Oh, God.
If we had arrived just
a moment earlier...
Indeed.
McTavish.
George, have the
men take a look.
There might still
be someone inside.
Sir.
Sally!
Sally. Sally, you're hurt.
No, I'm fine.
What in God's name
are you up to, Murdoch?
Are you trying to
get my wife killed?
The more pertinent
question, Mr. Pendrick,
is "What are you doing here?"
Did you follow Sally?
That's Mrs.
Pendrick to you, sir.
Her well-being is my concern.
Why exactly did
you bring her here?
That's police business.
Your police business
risked my wife's life.
I'll be making that
point to your superiors.
Sir, there's a man
inside the building.
Dead or alive?
Very much dead, sir.
It's Colin McTavish.
The Bertillon measurements
leave no doubt.
Most of the blast wounds
are on his right side.
This embedded debris.
Yes. Flying shards of
wood and metal and glass.
Beyond that,
the state of the body is making
the postmortem rather difficult.
That's unfortunate.
Any word on the
cause of the explosion?
The fire chief seems to
think it was a gas leak.
You don't sound convinced.
Well, it's the timing.
Just at the moment
when Sally Pendrick was
supposed to enter the building.
Yes.
How is she?
She had quite a close call.
She's shaken,
but she'll be fine.
You must be relieved.
Yes, quite.
Julia, are you concerned
about the nature of my
relationship with Mrs. Pendrick?
Is that the cause for
this distance between us?
No. I promise, William.
It's nothing to do
with Sally Pendrick.
If the explosion was
the result of a gas leak,
as the fire chief suggests,
something ignited
a room full of gas.
McTavish lighting a cigar.
- Or a lamp.
- Either of those.
The resulting explosion
would have sent debris outward
in all directions like this.
However, McTavish's
injuries were concentrated
to the right side of his body,
as if the explosion came
from one side of the room.
What would have caused that?
I don't know.
I'd like to return to the
warehouse and take another look.
If McTavish was murdered,
it's most likely it was the
same person who killed Abigail.
I'll wager it was one of
their blackmail victims.
Except, sir, all
those men have alibis
for the night of Miss
Tunstall's murder.
Well, we must have
missed something.
Have we interviewed all of them?
Everybody except for this chap
that we haven't
been able to identify.
Right.
George, enlarge that
photograph. And make copies.
Perhaps someone at another
station can identify him.
Sir, will do.
What's all this?
The remnants of a bomb, sir.
This pile of leavings?
It was found at the blast site.
So, no gas leak.
There was a ruptured gas line,
but that was as a
result of the explosion,
not the cause of it.
What do you plan
on doing with all this?
If I can determine how
the bomb was made,
perhaps it will lead
us to who set it.
The answer lies in
reconstructing the bomb.
You can do that?
I can try.
Dr. Ogden is
asking for you, sir.
It's quite curious, but
there's no doubt about it.
Colin McTavish was dead
before the explosion occurred.
There's no trace of searing
or ash inside the lungs.
And how long has he been dead?
Not long.
Perhaps a day or two.
Why would anyone
go to the trouble
of blowing up a dead body?
Why, indeed?
And the actual cause of death?
I'm still trying to
determine that.
Thank you, Doctor.
I must be off.
Sir, I've enlarged
the photograph.
Did you make copies?
Not yet. I thought you
should have a look first.
Hmm. I still don't
recognize him.
Not him, sir. Her.
Look in the mirror.
That's not Abigail.
No, that's Moira Mahoney.
She's the one who
stayed to speak with us
at Marcus Evans' studio.
Miss.
So it is.
Now, she swore up and down, sir,
she was never in that
apartment, but there she is.
In the flesh so to speak.
Well done,
Crabtree. Bring her in.
- Immediately.
- Will do.
Detective.
Mrs. Pendrick.
Is your husband here?
Why, no, he's at the office.
Good, good.
Sally, you have to leave here.
You're in danger.
What in the world
are you talking about?
That explosion...
It wasn't a gas leak.
It was a bomb.
And I believe it
was meant for you.
Me?
Well, how do you know?
McTavish was already
dead when the bomb went off.
Somebody else lured
you to that building,
knowing you'd arrive just
in time for it to explode.
Goodness.
But why leave here?
I can think of only one person
who would want both
you and McTavish dead.
Your husband.
Mr. Pendrick must have found out
about your involvement
with McTavish.
He must have
overheard us talking.
He was in another
part of the house.
Perhaps he has
hidden microphones.
I hardly think.
How did he know you
would be at that warehouse?
He followed us.
He said as much on
the carriage ride home.
He was concerned about
your attentions towards me.
I believe he lured
you to that warehouse.
The note came from Colin.
Perhaps Mr. Pendrick
forged the note.
Or killed McTavish
after he wrote it.
No. That can't be.
I've always believed
someone else was
behind the Rembrandt theft.
Four people died
in that incident,
one of them shot
by your husband.
James shot Luca
Carducci to save your life.
Or to silence him.
And what about the
Eugenics Society?
What about it?
James was not responsible
for Linus Malling's death.
Still, his views on the
matter are entirely sinister.
I believe your husband
is a dangerous man.
Well, I simply
don't believe you.
James would never hurt me.
Mr. Pendrick has the
technical capability
of building an explosive device.
And so do many people.
What proof do you have, hmm?
Sally, please.
For your own safety.
I'm afraid I'm going to have
to ask you to leave, Detective.
And it's Mrs. Pendrick.
- But...
- I'm quite serious.
Get out.
My office, George.
Oh, sir, you should know,
the inspector's in the interview
room with Moira Mahoney.
She's the one in the
photo with the mystery man.
Really?
Hmm.
George, these are the
remnants of an exploded bomb.
It's my intention to
put it back together.
- Oh, you're serious.
- Yes.
But first I need you to
clean the carbon residue
off of every piece.
I don't know who that girl is.
Look in the mirror.
Look closer.
It was just the
one time, I swear.
I'm not that kind of girl.
Really?
You didn't have any problem
stripping down for Marcus Evans.
That was different.
I never had to go starkers,
and no one ever touched me.
I'm not a doxie!
I don't care if you're
the whore of Babylon.
I want to know everything
you know about this operation,
starting with him.
Who is he?
I don't remember his name.
Rubbish!
Abby knew him. I didn't.
I never seen him
before or since.
How did you choose your marks?
I didn't.
I told you. I
wanted no part of it.
How did Abigail Tunstall know
which men to approach?
- She had Mr. Evans' client list.
- She stole it?
She didn't have to steal it.
Mr. Evans gave it to her.
Oh, is that so?
Abby told him she wanted to know
which men liked to
buy the postcards of her.
So then Abigail
contacted these men
and invited them
up to the apartment.
How many of these so-called
gentlemen were on the list?
A lot.
Abby was very popular.
I wasn't nearly so.
Evans just handed
over the list, did he?
Well, he didn't know what
she wanted it for, did he?
If he had known, he
never would have agreed.
Why?
Because of his abiding
moral conscience?
No.
Because it would
have broken his heart.
He was crazy in love with her.
They were lovers?
No.
She'd never let him.
If he'd known what she was
doing, it would have killed him.
I'm not convinced, sir.
I still think Pendrick planted
the bomb in that warehouse.
You're always on
about bloody Pendrick.
Sir, he had motive,
and he was in the vicinity of
the warehouse when it exploded.
You're barking up the
wrong tree, Murdoch.
Evans is our boy on this one.
He was in love
with Abigail Tunstall,
who ditches him for McTavish,
and just as a final
kick in the old plums,
she takes his client list.
Evans has motive to
kill the both of them.
All right, let's go.
Hats and coats.
You never learn, do you?
Just wait there.
It's time to come clean, Evans.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Abigail Tunstall
and Colin McTavish.
You killed them.
- I did not.
- Your best girl.
Your little angel.
Do you want to see more?
No.
There are dozens of them.
All of Abigail Tunstall
and your ex-clients.
It must have driven you insane,
knowing that Abigail ditched
you for that sort of business.
You've got it all wrong.
I didn't know why
Abby left the studio.
The love of your life,
and you didn't
bother to find out why?
Bollocks!
She had them lined up
around the block, Evans.
She was making money hand
over fist, her and McTavish,
blackmailing your clients.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Well, that's funny,
because Judge Chislett
told us that he confronted you.
You knew, didn't you?
What was it like
knowing what the love
of your life was doing
with all of these men?
Any man, in fact, but you.
Stop it! Stop it.
What were you doing
between midnight and 2:00 a.m.
on October 3rd?
I don't remember.
It was three days ago.
I'll tell you what
you were doing.
You had your fat fingers
around her pretty little neck.
You killed her, Evans.
And you killed McTavish.
I didn't kill McTavish.
I never even set eyes on him.
I wish I had done
him in, though.
Instead of Abigail?
I didn't mean to.
I just wanted to show her
how much she'd hurt me.
She was so heartless.
I lost my temper.
I remember grabbing
her, shaking her.
The next thing I
knew, she was dead.
What about Sally Pendrick?
How does she figure into this?
Sally who?
Evans had a reason to
kill Abigail and McTavish,
but not Sally.
While Pendrick may have wanted
to have McTavish and Sally dead,
but not Abigail Tunstall.
Thank you.
So we're dealing with
two separate crimes.
One of which involves
James Pendrick.
You know you're treading
on dangerous ground.
Pendrick has already
complained to the chief constable
about you.
- If you're wrong...
- I'm not wrong.
Not this time.
So, what's the plan?
At the moment, I have a
bomb to put back together.
Interesting.
So, sir, the explosive
material was contained
in this metal pipe section, yes.
That's right.
And this is the remains of a
timing device of some sort,
which would have been
attached to a blasting cap...
Which would have ignited
the explosive material
once the timer reached 8:00.
That's right, but some of the
pieces appear to be missing.
Unless they've been
blown beyond recognition.
Well, sir, I think this
piece is for your lot.
It's a cog wheel of some sort.
Ah, George, what
country of origin
would you say begins
with the letters S-W?
Oh, there's several
I can think of, sir.
Swansea. That's in
England, I believe.
Uh, Sweden.
Swaziland, I think,
is a real place.
Switzerland, George.
Switzerland.
And what are the
Swiss famous for?
Chocolate. Cheese.
Cheese with holes in it.
Clocks!
George, the Swiss are
famous for fine Swiss clocks.
And fine Swiss clocks
require fine clock wheels.
George, I need you to
run another errand for me.
Detective, please!
James Pendrick,
you are under arrest
for the murder of Colin McTavish
and the attempted murder
of your wife, Sally Pendrick.
Really, Detective,
you've outdone yourself.
This is no laughing matter.
This is a clock wheel
from the timing mechanism
of the bomb that
almost killed your wife.
Yes. And?
It's identical to
the clock wheels
used in this remarkable model
that I was so impressed
with months ago.
So it matches.
That means nothing.
These clock wheels are very
rare and not readily available here.
I had my constable check
with the manufacturer
in Switzerland.
And they confirm a shipment
of several of the clock wheels
were sent to a Pendrick
Steel Company in Toronto.
A record of the transactions
is in the mail as we speak.
You're dead wrong, Detective.
I've heard that before, sir.
You'll regret this, Murdoch.
Darling, don't be concerned.
I'll be home before dinner.
Dr. Folwell.
What a pleasure
to see you again.
So, this is your headquarters.
A rather dreary one, I'm afraid.
Tchaikovsky, is it not?
Yes. From his Opus 35.
So, do I have good news to
take back to my colleagues
at the children's hospital?
Oh, really, so soon?
I haven't even had a chance
to discuss this with my family.
There's no immediate rush.
But I take it you're
not saying no.
I must admit I have been
contemplating a change.
Yes.
A grim business,
always dealing in death.
It can be, yes.
And the chance
to heal children...
I look forward to your
decision, then, Doctor.
Good day.
I'm afraid I was rather
high-handed earlier.
I apologize.
In spite of the circumstances,
this must be very
difficult for you.
It is difficult.
But, truly, it is I who
should apologize.
I've turned a blind eye
to my husband's faults.
Your husband's
a very clever man.
Yes, and you were right
about him all along, it seems.
I owe you my life.
I must confess to a concern.
How will you fare on your own?
Always come out all right.
One way or another.
Mrs. Pendrick.
Sally.
Sally.
If you're ever in
need of assistance,
I would be honored if
you were to call on me.
Thank you, Detective.
I might just do that.
