- 4:32Speaker 3: Oh quite luckily we weren't taken in by the Sun's story.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Wasn't it home?
- 4:37Speaker 4: I'm not sure, Watson. You will recall that George snuff
- 4:41Speaker 4: box and I received in this morning's post. It was
- 4:43Speaker 4: a token from the King of Mourania.
- 4:44Speaker 2: Yes, you put it on the mantelpiece. Good lord, it's
- 4:48Speaker 2: vanished precisely.
- 4:50Speaker 6: The Dodger Duchess of Penfield is so brilliant at catomaniac
- 4:53Speaker 6: that she has achieved an unnoticed step for two twenty
- 4:55Speaker 6: one d baty stream. Well of all the amazing nerve, Watson,
- 4:59Speaker 6: we've met a worthy anti meagonist. Come on, old Chap,
- 5:01Speaker 6: grab your hat and coat. I think we'll take the
- 5:03Speaker 6: liberty of providing the Duchess with an unobtrusive escort.
- 5:15Speaker 5: Oh, Lord Holmes, this is the trope shop that we've
- 5:19Speaker 5: been in My feet a turd. We've been following the
- 5:22Speaker 5: Duchess all day.
- 5:23Speaker 11: I was anxious to observe her technique. She's obviously had
- 5:26Speaker 11: plenty of practice. Yes, she spent about one hundred pounds
- 5:29Speaker 11: in the shopping doow so far, and yet she succeeded
- 5:32Speaker 11: in obtaining some five hundred pounds worth of goods.
- 5:35Speaker 8: Brilliant work, A small man in the bell hat stopping
- 5:38Speaker 8: her the shop deticted, no.
- 5:39Speaker 6: Doubt, Come on, Watson.
- 5:42Speaker 2: I'm sorry, ma'am, but there it is.
- 5:44Speaker 9: What's at her?
- 5:45Speaker 2: Ballder? There? You talking? I must ask you to come
- 5:47Speaker 2: and see the manager. Can I be of any assistance
- 5:50Speaker 2: your grace?
- 5:50Speaker 9: First, it's poons and his friends. Yes, yes, you can
- 5:55Speaker 9: tell this easier to stop bothering.
- 5:56Speaker 2: What seems to be the matter?
- 5:58Speaker 8: I saw this, your lady pick up a silver matchbox
- 6:00Speaker 8: and slip it into a hand bag.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Kill six.
- 6:04Speaker 9: I examined it. Yes, what if it's missing?
- 6:06Speaker 10: This man was standing you search him.
- 6:08Speaker 2: Search homes. But that's ridiculous.
- 6:10Speaker 9: Of course it is my mind, muster. I am a dammager, duchess,
- 6:14Speaker 9: a thinfield. Now search this man.
- 6:18Speaker 2: That's your grace.
- 6:19Speaker 4: Insufferable, your grace, I must ask you.
- 6:23Speaker 9: You stand here.
- 6:25Speaker 2: I'm going to search you. This is ridiculous, Michael, because
- 6:28Speaker 2: it is.
- 6:28Speaker 4: If you didn't take it, you got downe and be
- 6:30Speaker 4: frightened a bad things. Oh hello, what's this in your coat?
- 6:34Speaker 2: Party's great cut? Homes it's still the match box? Quiet?
- 6:39Speaker 2: Come I is there.
- 6:40Speaker 4: You've got to explain this to the manager. Very embarrassed,
- 6:53Speaker 4: I brought you here that's quite all right, son. It
- 6:56Speaker 4: was a perfectly understandable missing, But you.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Must realize that this fortunate habits of the duchesses.
- 7:02Speaker 4: Must be kept the syncret quite sure, doctor Watson, and.
- 7:05Speaker 6: I think the program I've outlined will prove the most
- 7:07Speaker 6: satisfactory way of handling any such incidence in the future.
- 7:11Speaker 6: You follow my plan quite clearly. Oh, yes, mister Holmes
- 7:14Speaker 6: will have our shaft tep watching her or whenever she
- 7:16Speaker 6: comes in anything she's did that doesn't pay for her,
- 7:19Speaker 6: We're charge to her accounter as though they were purchases.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Precisely.
- 7:22Speaker 6: In that way, your shop will sustain no loss, and
- 7:25Speaker 6: the Penfield family will despare public scandal. Yes, a very
- 7:29Speaker 6: satisfactory arrangement, I think fromin Watson.
- 7:42Speaker 7: Yes, mister Home, it's a very satisfactory arrangement, don't you agree, Hillary, Yes, Undele.
- 7:47Speaker 4: I suppose if we can't start Granny pinching his stuff,
- 7:49Speaker 4: at least this will.
- 7:50Speaker 2: Keep it quiet.
- 7:51Speaker 6: Hillary. All that remains to be done, Lord Danby, is
- 7:54Speaker 6: to make similar arrangements of the other shops your mother Patronine.
- 7:57Speaker 2: In that way all scandal can be Yes.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Yes, it's an excellent plan.
- 8:02Speaker 7: Excellent I only waited since Granny so free and easy
- 8:04Speaker 7: with other people's stuff, she'd loosened up the money bags.
- 8:07Speaker 6: For me a little.
- 8:08Speaker 2: I'm stony broke.
- 8:09Speaker 4: We won't go into that now, Hilary, come along, my boy.
- 8:11Speaker 4: I know mister Holmes as a busy man.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Good day, gentlemen, communicating with you very well, Lord Damian. Well,
- 8:19Speaker 2: I suppose that's the last feel to hear of the
- 8:20Speaker 2: Duchess's problem.
- 8:22Speaker 6: I think not, Watson, Huh. Just before Lord Dandy arrived,
- 8:25Speaker 6: I was studying the social section of Today's Times. Look
- 8:29Speaker 6: at the item I ringed in blue pencils.
- 8:32Speaker 3: Distinguished Polish nobleman co Stephen one crutch Off is holding
- 8:37Speaker 3: a reception.
- 8:38Speaker 2: At this Groveners Square house tomorrow afternoon, at which time
- 8:42Speaker 2: the famous cuts Off Emerald will be displayed.
- 8:44Speaker 4: Skim through the list of guests, Watson, I think one
- 8:47Speaker 4: name will interest your.
- 8:50Speaker 3: Martin, Lord Menon Novick by George, the Dodger Duchess of
- 8:54Speaker 3: Fenfield exactly.
- 8:56Speaker 6: And the combination of the finest emerald in Europe and
- 8:58Speaker 6: the Duchess of Penfield means that this is one reception
- 9:01Speaker 6: we must not miss.
- 9:13Speaker 9: Where's your friend? Shall not home?
- 9:15Speaker 2: You don't know their tongue in the camp cuts off
- 9:17Speaker 2: for grace.
- 9:18Speaker 9: You and your friend have been following this since yesterday.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Haven't you? Of course do we? We wouldn't bream with
- 9:23Speaker 2: such a thing. Six.
- 9:25Speaker 10: I know you have right away you said we've met
- 9:29Speaker 10: the tow somewhere.
- 9:30Speaker 2: Where are they? I have to smile. Parkinson's in structure
- 9:33Speaker 2: at a pacifist.
- 9:34Speaker 10: The other Parkinson's goes.
- 9:36Speaker 9: Remember you, I was.
- 9:37Speaker 2: Wearing a Pharo's costume.
- 9:39Speaker 9: Oh really a very original?
- 9:42Speaker 2: What was I wedding? Something in blue? Blue? Will build it?
- 9:46Speaker 2: You was? You had a white wig? I remember you
- 9:49Speaker 2: looked in charting.
- 9:50Speaker 9: It wasn't a week It was their own hair. Their
- 9:53Speaker 9: own hair is white, and it wasn't there that it
- 9:55Speaker 9: was tool and the dress was red and blue. However,
- 9:58Speaker 9: I'm flatter, but you'll remember this. Good good night, Judges,
- 10:02Speaker 9: Count A very pleasantly good.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Night, my dear duchess.
- 10:07Speaker 4: I am so happy that you wonderf me with your present.
- 10:13Speaker 12: Thank you so much, Count. Good night, then, man, the
- 10:18Speaker 12: most successful evening comes. I am glad to tell many
- 10:22Speaker 12: distinguished guests, but present talk to wauts. You were very
- 10:26Speaker 12: quiet this evening, mister Holmes.
- 10:27Speaker 6: I was watching count My eyes hardly left the Emerald
- 10:31Speaker 6: during the entire evening.
- 10:32Speaker 4: I imagine that you had some professional reason for attending.
- 10:36Speaker 2: He was most insistently time bite you. But nothing happened,
- 10:40Speaker 2: Jamie ju.
- 10:40Speaker 4: Lying in its gates on the table there, I saw
- 10:42Speaker 4: nothing happen. I hope nothing to what could have happened.
- 10:46Speaker 2: There's a stone safe and sounds. Please examine it, mister Holmes.
- 10:50Speaker 2: I know you have quite a reputation as an expert
- 10:52Speaker 2: on twis.
- 10:56Speaker 12: What a beautiful gem you just considered one of the
- 10:59Speaker 12: test things you would have.
- 11:01Speaker 4: Mister Holmes, what is your opinion that you've been robbed?
- 11:04Speaker 6: Krats off rob Yes, this is an extremely fine paste Retrica.
- 11:09Speaker 6: The cratsoft Emerald has been stolen right under my betty eyes.
- 11:22Speaker 1: Just a moment, we'll rejoin Sherlock Holmes and doctor Watson
- 11:25Speaker 1: as they try to solve the mystery of the abusive emerald.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Men, it's smart to take care of the hair you've got.
- 11:32Speaker 1: And I want to tell you about Crimal hair timing.
- 11:35Speaker 1: You see, KREML is a highly specialized hair turning. It
- 11:38Speaker 1: contains a combination of hair grooming ingredients found in no
- 11:41Speaker 1: other hair timing that's why it cheaps hair neatly, in
- 11:45Speaker 1: place longer and gives the hair such a natural, well
- 11:48Speaker 1: groomed appearance, never greasy or sticky.
- 11:51Speaker 4: But men, Kremil does lots.
- 11:53Speaker 1: More than keep hair looking attractive. A quick massage with
- 11:56Speaker 1: Kremil stimulates the circulation of blood right in the of
- 12:00Speaker 1: the scalp. Notice how alive, how invigorated your scalp feels.
- 12:05Speaker 1: And then you like to rub Kremmel on your scalp
- 12:07Speaker 1: because it's such a clean hair turning never feels greasy
- 12:11Speaker 1: or sticky. Its light oils have a fine lubricating effect
- 12:15Speaker 1: on a dry scalp too. At the same time, it
- 12:17Speaker 1: removes loose danders. And if your hair is so dry
- 12:20Speaker 1: that it breaks and falls, Kremil actually helps condition the
- 12:24Speaker 1: hair in that it makes it feel softer, more pliable.
- 12:28Speaker 1: So Men for a cleaner scalp for better groomed hair.
- 12:32Speaker 1: Changed to kreml k r e m L Kremmel hair turning.
- 12:43Speaker 1: So doctor watching the famous Emerald had been replaced by
- 12:46Speaker 1: a paste replica.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Yes, my boy head, I don't have to be.
- 12:49Speaker 1: A Sherlock Holmes to deduce that the Dowager Duchess was
- 12:52Speaker 1: the culprit Elementary.
- 12:53Speaker 2: My dear mister Bell Elementary. But when the police arrived
- 12:57Speaker 2: on the scene, Holmes gave no indication about your suspicion.
- 13:01Speaker 5: Later on, when we returned to Baker Street, I don't
- 13:04Speaker 5: think either of us were in a least bit surprised
- 13:07Speaker 5: to find that Lord Danby was waiting for us.
- 13:10Speaker 2: In a state of great appitate, Mister Holmes, you've helped
- 13:13Speaker 2: me so far. You've got to find some way out
- 13:15Speaker 2: of this nest.
- 13:16Speaker 4: You've spoken to. Can't find Tratsoff since the last was discovered. Yes,
- 13:20Speaker 4: he came over to see me while you and the
- 13:21Speaker 4: police are still searching the house.
- 13:23Speaker 2: We're neighbors.
- 13:24Speaker 4: You will want to be said that for the sum
- 13:26Speaker 4: of twenty thousand pounds he'd agreed to keep the home
- 13:29Speaker 4: matter quiet.
- 13:30Speaker 6: Indeed, and why should Count Foncratsoff assume that your mother
- 13:34Speaker 6: was responsible for the theft.
- 13:35Speaker 4: I'm afraid he must have heard rumors of her unfortunate habits.
- 13:39Speaker 2: You propose to make the supplement lord down there he
- 13:42Speaker 2: is he can't afford it.
- 13:43Speaker 6: Doctor me. What will my brother the.
- 13:46Speaker 4: Duke say when he returns from India?
- 13:48Speaker 6: What am I to do? Mister Holmes, your problem has
- 13:51Speaker 6: many more ramifications than I imagined when you first called me,
- 13:53Speaker 6: Lord Danbn.
- 13:55Speaker 4: I think if you alarm me a few hours, grace,
- 13:57Speaker 4: I can give you a surprisingly satisfactor a solution to
- 13:59Speaker 4: your dea. I'll be eternally grateful if you can.
- 14:02Speaker 2: How do you propose to do it home?
- 14:03Speaker 6: The first step is obvious to find the jeweler who
- 14:06Speaker 6: made the paste replica. Unless I'm much mistaken, there's only
- 14:09Speaker 6: one jeweler in London capable of such an exquisite piece
- 14:12Speaker 6: of craftsmanship. We shall call on him, Watson.
- 14:15Speaker 4: We shall call on him at once.
- 14:26Speaker 6: Yes, mister Holmes, I made this replica. I thought you
- 14:29Speaker 6: were the only man in London capable of such brilliant work.
- 14:32Speaker 6: Mister Markets, I'm most kind.
- 14:33Speaker 4: It was one of a pair of duplicates that were ordered, Yes, now,
- 14:39Speaker 4: the PLoP pickens.
- 14:40Speaker 3: You had no idea that the replicas were ordered with
- 14:43Speaker 3: any criminal intent, mister Marketers.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Of course, not such.
- 14:46Speaker 4: To Watson, I was told that they were for a
- 14:48Speaker 4: collection of replicas of famous stones, and I was paid
- 14:51Speaker 4: handsomely twenty five guineas a piece for them.
- 14:54Speaker 6: Yes, a small stake for so large a pride could
- 14:57Speaker 6: you describe the woman who gave you the order, woman, doctor,
- 15:00Speaker 6: It was a nun, a young man.
- 15:02Speaker 2: And a man. But Holmes, she must have an accomplice.
- 15:06Speaker 6: I think not, Watson. Oh, the train of thought suggested,
- 15:09Speaker 6: it is certainly an astonishing one. However, our next move
- 15:13Speaker 6: should be obvious. What's that we return to Baker Street
- 15:16Speaker 6: for certain necessary tools in my trade, and then, my
- 15:19Speaker 6: dear fellow, we pay an unannounced visit to the dodge
- 15:22Speaker 6: of Duchess and try.
- 15:23Speaker 4: Our hands at a little burglary. Oh have you it's Watson.
- 15:43Speaker 2: I hope you're not too cold jet carrying here, and
- 15:47Speaker 2: these bushes under the Duchess's window must have been gone
- 15:49Speaker 2: for three because of it our at least.
- 15:51Speaker 6: Nevertheless, it was a very profitable excursion.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Here, haven't say, take off that stupid mustache.
- 15:57Speaker 6: And yet this stupid mustache inspired great competence in the
- 16:00Speaker 6: second chamber. Made under the impression that I was a
- 16:02Speaker 6: flirtatious plumber with prospects, she informed that the Duchess has
- 16:07Speaker 6: a small room leading off the boudoir, a room that
- 16:10Speaker 6: none of the staff is allowed to enter.
- 16:12Speaker 2: That's where her heart is stolen. Goods may be.
- 16:14Speaker 6: Situated it's worth triangle chant. A stout coil of rope
- 16:18Speaker 6: attached to the balcony aboveshet to enable us to make
- 16:20Speaker 6: an unobtrusive entry.
- 16:22Speaker 2: Where do we find a stout coil of rope?
- 16:24Speaker 6: Even a pseudo plumber has its tools. You don't imagine
- 16:27Speaker 6: this bag contains a pipe, range or some such useless
- 16:30Speaker 6: appertinence for.
- 16:31Speaker 13: Your look, rich Scott. A coil of rope exactly. Now
- 16:37Speaker 13: let's see how best we may secure it to the
- 16:39Speaker 13: balcony above. But we must work quietly, Watson, I discovered.
- 16:43Speaker 13: I'm afraid this is going to be a trifle hard
- 16:45Speaker 13: to explain. I'm robe homes.
- 17:01Speaker 2: I realize I'm not as young as I.
- 17:03Speaker 6: Used to be. I fear you were surprisingly nimble, my DearS.
- 17:06Speaker 14: I don't like this person discovers as burning the Duchess's house,
- 17:10Speaker 14: and course of police said what we.
- 17:12Speaker 6: Shall probably go to prison. Strike a match, will you?

- 20:51Speaker 4: visitor here tonight.
- 20:53Speaker 2: Please come in, mister r it's Ajulifuller.
- 20:57Speaker 6: Now, mister Marcus, please point out the person who want
- 21:00Speaker 6: the two paced replicas from you. It was that young
- 21:02Speaker 6: man there be, but I've never seen you before in
- 21:05Speaker 6: my life.
- 21:05Speaker 2: He was the man.
- 21:06Speaker 6: Mister Fum you mean that, I mean, Lord Dandy, that
- 21:09Speaker 6: the whole theft was part of an extremely cunning plot.
- 21:12Speaker 6: Count front Tratzoff, you joined forces with young Hillary here.
- 21:16Speaker 6: You displayed a peace replica at your reception and tempted
- 21:18Speaker 6: the Duchess to seal it.
- 21:19Speaker 2: Which she did, And then the Count substituted the second.
- 21:22Speaker 6: Replica in place of the one that you'd taken precisely
- 21:24Speaker 6: and insisted that I examined the stone, knowing that i'd
- 21:27Speaker 6: spot it was a fake, and then Count von Kratsoff
- 21:30Speaker 6: attempted to persuade the family to settle for twenty thousand.
- 21:32Speaker 7: Pounds for the theft of a peace imitation. Well, County
- 21:35Speaker 7: looks as though she'll like Hoss too smart for us.
- 21:37Speaker 4: There a full Hillary, admit nothing. A confession is not
- 21:40Speaker 4: needed since.
- 21:40Speaker 2: The guilt is proven. But where's the real Emerald?
- 21:43Speaker 4: I'm quite certain it's still safe in Poland.
- 21:46Speaker 6: The whole plot was perfectly clear to me when mister
- 21:48Speaker 6: Marcus told me of the pair of duplict Yes.
- 21:50Speaker 5: Except for many I could have to indulged in such
- 21:52Speaker 5: an elaborate plan, nor would one work with an accompass.
- 21:56Speaker 4: Well, Lord Andy, what do you say?
- 21:58Speaker 7: I'm shocked, deeply shocked, My nephew, I shall deal with separately.
- 22:03Speaker 7: Of course, don't look so grumpy, Uncle, I was only
- 22:06Speaker 7: trying to get a little money. Grannie wouldn't give me
- 22:07Speaker 7: any account from Kretsov. You can be prosecuted for fraud
- 22:11Speaker 7: and extortion.
- 22:12Speaker 2: You know, only by involving the ten feet of family
- 22:14Speaker 2: in a great.
- 22:15Speaker 4: He lost temple.
- 22:16Speaker 2: I just show you, mister Hols, what do you say
- 22:18Speaker 2: or dany do you intend to prosecute.
- 22:19Speaker 4: If the counts right, this scandal would be unbearable. Their
- 22:23Speaker 4: knight suggest we merely request count from Kratsoff's immediate departure
- 22:26Speaker 4: for poem.
- 22:29Speaker 2: It's mother, it's Grannie, it's the Dutch.
- 22:31Speaker 9: It all wrong, my word, how very depressing. I came
- 22:35Speaker 9: here to talk to Dodtor Watson, and I find his
- 22:38Speaker 9: room needy.
- 22:38Speaker 2: With my relatives.
- 22:40Speaker 9: Now get out of this room, all of you, but
- 22:42Speaker 9: now no arguments. Thus leave the room all up. You
- 22:44Speaker 9: all wait for.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Mister Holmes.
- 22:51Speaker 9: I want to speak to Dtor Watson alone.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Very well, your grace homes don't believe me.
- 22:56Speaker 9: That's extremely ung the.
- 22:57Speaker 3: Land of you, doctor, your grace, you speak really perfectly,
- 23:01Speaker 3: freely in front of mister holmesl no word.
- 23:05Speaker 9: Extremely disappointing.
- 23:07Speaker 10: Well, young man, I realized that I was curl and
- 23:10Speaker 10: hot at you last night.
- 23:11Speaker 9: Yeah, there's your watch, let's just go key on the chain.
- 23:18Speaker 10: Well that's the key to my private conservatory in the garden. Yes, sir,
- 23:24Speaker 10: a man of your weight has no business climbing roofs.
- 23:29Speaker 9: As I looked through my wad about your left last night,
- 23:36Speaker 9: I found that dress.
- 23:37Speaker 10: I wore as the snice Parkinson it was green bottled
- 23:41Speaker 10: green nets.
- 23:44Speaker 4: My dear fellow, you've made a conquest, a distinct concreest.
- 23:48Speaker 2: So Burston life go key. Indeed you know homes and
- 23:53Speaker 2: the cases over. I think carbon Kratzof should be told
- 23:56Speaker 2: to listen and he let that young fellow astray, even
- 23:59Speaker 2: though damn they doesn't want to prosecute. I'm not sure
- 24:02Speaker 2: that we shouldn't.
- 24:03Speaker 4: What evidence would.
- 24:05Speaker 2: We usea emerald?
- 24:07Speaker 6: Of course, you seem to forget that the larger Duchess
- 24:10Speaker 6: of Penfield has just left the room.
- 24:12Speaker 2: What you mean to tell it again?
- 24:14Speaker 4: Yes, Watson, I'm sure that our
- 24:16Speaker 6: Evidence will shortly be reposing in that small room off
- 24:19Speaker 6: her boudoir, and I have a strong feeling that not
- 24:23Speaker 6: even your love for British justice will get you there
- 24:25Speaker 6: again
