00:05:15 I saw the Ripper. He ran down the other alley.
00:07:58 We have a Slade Walk at the corner of the square here.
00:11:20 So if at times he seems a little eccentric...
00:13:42 He'll be no trouble. We shall hardly know that he's in the house.
00:16:26 - He can always decide to open up new ground. - Oh, well.
00:19:19 You fascinate him, you know.
00:21:59 I looked at myself, and I wondered how I'd go over.
00:26:27 Miss Langley, were you well-acquainted with her?
00:28:54 your solemn oath in a court of law?

00:41:12 - What's this shovel? - Oh, that was used to, uh...
00:43:47 - Only once. - Good, ain't she?
00:48:11 Then he must still be about.
00:53:07 - Robert, Kitty saw the stains. - But I told you what they were.

01:13:04 - Ah, hello, John. - I'm sorry I'm so late.
01:16:17 If you take the life away, then...
01:23:25 I'm glad.
