smoke ah Wilbur how nice to see you come in thank you you have no trouble getting here no no no trouble at all let me take your coat thank you it's just a little cold going in I didn't know you had a cat oh yeah sure there's a matter of fact you ought to be grateful to sugar it wasn't for him I probably wouldn't be interested in publishing your book then you are going to publish it oh wait a minute just a moment I said interested the matter of fact I'm not convinced that the public is ready for the story you said that about my book on flying saucers now everyone believes it and my theory regarding the pyramids do you believe this sort of thing I believe everything I write everything there's a poem it's just a moment - what you say is right how are you going to convince the people what you're writing about is true for instance the marking story there could be dozens of explanations this is what really happened I had access to the police statements and the doctor's report on the bodies believe me I do know what happened I know come mr. Weiss to see Miss Maggie Thank You Janet how are you today miss Malkin feeling stronger I hope Oh battling arm you know it takes more than a stroke to put me other back I'm sure now here are two copies of the new video ask me to prepare and now what I would like to do is to go through them bathroom Janet what are you doing I'm just based learning and I thought it'd be alright if I it is most certainly not all right mr. Wallace and I have an important matter which we wish to discuss in private you must find some pills to go yes miss Mallon have you fed to the cats yet no miss Marcus well please do sir yes miss Marvin and shut the door behind you I'm not feeding my treasures done that girl will be the death of me one of these days I'm quite convinced of it do you really wish to leave your request to your nephew as it stands miss Malkin in your original will he was a sole heir quite sure michael has squandered a considerable amount of my money already and I have received remarkably little gratitude from him in return no mr. Wallace my money was guilt with the only ones who'll be loyal to me all these years to my own little family now if you would be good enough to sign these both yeah and yeah you will keep one copy for yourself and I will take the other and I hope he'll feel better soon miss Malkin good Lord will see to that soon enough should you think of changing your mind not your nephew I won't be changing my mind again mr. Wallace you can be sure of that my only regret is that I won't be here to see his face when you read the will can't say I am through your job with all those cats did they give me the creeps we have a mutual understanding I scratch their backs and they don't scratch mine excuse me would you put this in the safe for me I'd rather you did it than the girls because they're behind that picture yes I still need the combination ah yes I have it right here in my diary doesn't matter is that her which being upsetting you again brace yourself first your aunt's will new area my sister's son Michael his kindness to me has always been conspicuous by its absence but we've the cost of one very good dinner at a fashionable restaurant because it will probably be the last you can now afford the cats get everything you know one no you have his rest I took it from her Louis briefcase when he wasn't looking so auntie has made after new wealth but mister have a drink my financial worries would be there's another copy in the safe but you have the combination I know where she keeps it how would you answer that your monitor is very very rich you're a wicked girl Janet a wicked wicked girl who deserves to go to hell please don't don't give me police very very rich I know where she keeps still no answer I think you're right there better go and take a look and I think it would be a good idea to call in a police station on the way everything happened exactly as I told you the lovers of the cats were hungry they had to eat something but to suggest that they deliberately decided to avenge the murder of their owners is just too fantastic if you want proof look at this a sworn statement from the solicitor a copy of it what are you going to do I want to put the cat out no you don't expect me to let him do what he wants to do in here come on sweetheart come on come on come on come on don't see this now perhaps you'll believe me yes but there were two cats I saw them they were top let's talk some more about your book this little girl Lucy mr. pictures of mrs.
