Petrie Sherry is one of <v Speaker 2>the most delicious before dinner wines in this swell country <v Speaker 2>of ours. Oh, and say, when you serve Petri sherry, <v Speaker 2>serve it proudly because those letters p E t R <v Speaker 2>I on the bottle, so the proudest name in the <v Speaker 2>history of American wine. And now I'm sure our good <v Speaker 2>friend doctor Watson's waiting for us. Let's go and job <v Speaker 2>there you are, mister good evening doctor, all alone tonight? <v Speaker 3>Huh, yes, my boy, you can call a man alone <v Speaker 3>when he petishes, pipe his books and the good port <v Speaker 3>his elbow. <v Speaker 1>Take off and join the Thanks doctor, help us up <v Speaker 1>to the pot. <v Speaker 3>There's some rather special tobacco the jar over there? Fine? <v Speaker 1>And now doctor, are you ready to tell us tonight's <v Speaker 1>new share? <v Speaker 3>Like cos I am, mister b and if you find <v Speaker 3>it the most unusual story. It began on a winter's <v Speaker 3>night in eighteen hundred and ninety six. Holmes and I <v Speaker 3>had gone to a fetter in the East end of <v Speaker 3>London to see a performance of a famous old English <v Speaker 3>melodrama called Sweeheit Tard The Demon Barber of Piet Street. <v Speaker 1>It's a good, blood thirsty title. <v Speaker 2>Back Demon Barber Sstands is a only specialized in close shades. <v Speaker 3>Gracious me, mister Bertill that almost unforgivable. He was a <v Speaker 3>murderer of voracious appetite who faced his victims in a <v Speaker 3>specially constructed barber's chair, cut their throats, and then pressed <v Speaker 3>the lever that would swing the chair over and cant <v Speaker 3>the unfortunate victim into a horrible cellar beneath his shop. <v Speaker 1>This is only a stage play, you're talking about, doctor. <v Speaker 3>As my story begins, we were seated in a private <v Speaker 3>box watching one of the closing scenes. Holmes was leaning <v Speaker 3>forward in his chair, following the action on the stage <v Speaker 3>with an obvious delight, while I set beside him equally <v Speaker 3>in growth. An act by the name of Mark Comphors <v Speaker 3>was playing the part of Sweeney Todd, and the one <v Speaker 3>could deny that he was playing Where are you going, Tobiah? <v Speaker 3>Who is the nearest magistrate Sweeney Todd to be now <v Speaker 3>to repeed me through old blood and murder? You have <v Speaker 3>pronounced chuckle into the chair with your and over and <v Speaker 3>down into the capt all ha haka. <v Speaker 4>There whence comes this apparitions the ghost of another customer <v Speaker 4>of mine. The yawning grave whields up his fastly inmates <v Speaker 4>to prove me guilty. <v Speaker 3>Dud will have done. See he is there. He comes <v Speaker 3>to accuse me of his murder. <v Speaker 5>Oh send me to that I that slew you believe <v Speaker 5>my uncle kill me? <v Speaker 1>Let me believe ha. <v Speaker 3>Ha upon my saw homes act full of Mark Hamphers <v Speaker 3>is the most slid actor that I've ever seen. <v Speaker 1>Honest say, I find him chanting Watson. <v Speaker 6>It seems to me he's really caught the flavor of <v Speaker 6>this murderous monsterpiece. After all, a restrained performance for barbersween <v Speaker 6>it's hard with the unthinkable first. <v Speaker 3>Word, I must say. His makeup seems rather overdone. No barber, <v Speaker 3>but with such enormous beard. The most impractical probably getting <v Speaker 3>the customers faces. By the way I look from the <v Speaker 3>program that Mark Hampers, as well as being the principal actor, <v Speaker 3>is also the owner of the company. <v Speaker 6>It's the current friend towards the actor manager as. <v Speaker 1>The help the sign on thing current. <v Speaker 3>Excuse me, that is one of you, gentlemen, mister s A. <v Speaker 1>I was asked to give you this note. <v Speaker 7>Thank you. <v Speaker 3>Who else knows that you're the home find out? <v Speaker 6>Ah, there's no is from my comforts our actor manager <v Speaker 6>janders to Holmes, I recognize you in your box, please <v Speaker 6>some of my dressing room mark the performat. My sanity <v Speaker 6>and even the safety of London perhaps depends on your compliance. <v Speaker 3>Of the safety of London. I wonder what on earth you. <v Speaker 7>Mean, my dear fellow. <v Speaker 6>We can only discover by going backstage to medium as <v Speaker 6>it is the curtains going up from the last scene <v Speaker 6>I see for a little longer. We must possess our <v Speaker 6>souls and patience, mister Sherlock Holmes, Yes, sir, my name <v Speaker 6>is Lindsay, Jerrick Lindsay. <v Speaker 1>I'm the business manager. Mister hump has. <v Speaker 3>Asked me to beat through the stage door because you're busy. <v Speaker 7>Thank you very much. <v Speaker 1>Now this is my colleague, doctor Watson. Are you doctor? <v Speaker 3>Will you? Will you follow the sea? <v Speaker 6>Excuse me asking mister Lindsay, but surely you must be <v Speaker 6>related to that distinguished actor of some years back, Lytton Lindsay. <v Speaker 3>He was my father. <v Speaker 7>Mister resemblance is a strawberry. <v Speaker 3>It's such a heritage to Lindsay. <v Speaker 4>You must love the He'll probably sound like heresy, but <v Speaker 4>I hate it. <v Speaker 1>However, it's the only thing I was trained for. And <v Speaker 1>there's good money to. <v Speaker 4>Be making it sometimes, and money is the thing I <v Speaker 4>both like and want from mister Holmes. <v Speaker 3>I do hope you were able to help Mark Humphreys. <v Speaker 7>He certainly needs it. <v Speaker 3>You know what seems to be his trouble. But he'll <v Speaker 3>have to tell you that Prince so. <v Speaker 1>But his wife and I think there's Missus Humphreys now <v Speaker 1>marry ya. This is missus Shelock Holmes and Dr Watson. <v Speaker 1>Missus Mark Humprey Holmes. <v Speaker 8>I'm so grateful that you're going to see Mark. <v Speaker 1>He's in such a dreadful story. <v Speaker 8>There have been times lately when when mister Lindsey and <v Speaker 8>I have been afraid he's going out of his mind, <v Speaker 8>haven't we there? <v Speaker 3>Indeed we have. <v Speaker 6>We're both dreadfully and in case, I hope I can <v Speaker 6>be of service in which is his dressing. <v Speaker 8>Home, number one next door to mine? Jeric, I think <v Speaker 8>it'll be better if mister Holmes and doctor Watson go <v Speaker 8>in alone. I'm sure Michael stetmore freely. <v Speaker 7>We're not in the room. <v Speaker 1>I think perhaps that is a good idea. <v Speaker 7>This is hump Is. <v Speaker 1>We'll see you later on. <v Speaker 9>Come on, well, thank Heaven, you're here. <v Speaker 6>First the door now, mister Humphers, and this is doctor <v Speaker 6>Watson Whatsney. <v Speaker 1>Yes, I know of you too.

Well, it's happened to me. <v Speaker 4>I'm turning into another Sweeny Todd, the character I'm portaying on. <v Speaker 1>The stage suggesting, sir that you're a potential murderer. <v Speaker 3>Yes, I am. <v Speaker 1>What reason do you have for holding that beleef reason? <v Speaker 3>Listen to this? <v Speaker 4>Three times in the past week, I've wakened in the <v Speaker 4>morning to find my boots covered with mud and my <v Speaker 4>razor stained with blood. <v Speaker 6>God, I had no recollection of any untoward events during <v Speaker 6>the night. <v Speaker 3>None have you ever predicted to the unfortunate habit of sleepwalking, <v Speaker 3>Not of my knowledge, doctor, And if I had been stolen, <v Speaker 3>my wife would. <v Speaker 1>Have told me about her wife. Where do you live, <v Speaker 1>miss Humbrey? We have a flat hair about the theater. <v Speaker 6>And mister Humprys, you save it on pree separate occasions. <v Speaker 6>On morning, in the morning you were found a blood <v Speaker 6>stained razor and mudcovered boots. <v Speaker 1>Can you show us this proof? No, no, I can't. <v Speaker 1>I was also frightened that my wife. <v Speaker 3>Would see that I cleaned. <v Speaker 1>Them before she had the opportunity of finding them. <v Speaker 3>It would have been very valuable clues in the case, like. <v Speaker 4>I couldn't risk my wife's seeing evidence like that doctor, <v Speaker 4>she'd know the truth. <v Speaker 5>But at night times, while she's asleep, some devilish, unconscious <v Speaker 5>urg has overcome me, an urge that causes me to <v Speaker 5>all the streets of London, raising in hand looking for <v Speaker 5>a vict of mister Holmes. <v Speaker 1>He's got to help me. <v Speaker 4>I'm certain that it had been committing murder. <v Speaker 3>And if you don't help me, I'll come on and. <v Speaker 1>On, mister humps beat and I'm to pick the case. <v Speaker 1>It says very unique assignment. <v Speaker 6>In effect, I'm being engaged by a possible murderer to <v Speaker 6>prove him guilty. <v Speaker 4>Well, mister elmsdding through all the records we have here <v Speaker 4>at Scotland, you're in Gregson. <v Speaker 10>The last two months we haven't had one case of <v Speaker 10>an unsolved killing with a race. <v Speaker 3>Any mysterious disappearances and sect. <v Speaker 1>Compressure our doctor. <v Speaker 3>There's never a day that passes with that one until them. <v Speaker 3>Here's a list of mister Elms. <v Speaker 6>If it's in the use to you, thanks, come onto morning. <v Speaker 6>We can go back to the theater and set our <v Speaker 6>friend's mind with it's time.

That accounts for the <v Speaker 3>boots and the bloodstained. <v Speaker 6>Razor precisely, my dear fellow, and the killer, having conditioned <v Speaker 6>his victim by this trickery, then murdered him, trying to <v Speaker 6>make it appear the suicide. <v Speaker 1>Now who had a votive? <v Speaker 3>Three people Humphreys, a lover, signor Vanella, and Derek Lindsay. <v Speaker 7>I must say wife, and so did I for a while, <v Speaker 7>And yet it was illogical. She knew, and we may <v Speaker 7>therefore presume that her love. <v Speaker 3>And knew, and that I was suspicious of her, And <v Speaker 3>she must have known that you promised her husband a <v Speaker 3>solution to his trouble before that I was out. It <v Speaker 3>seems highly improbable that she or Senior Vanilla would have <v Speaker 3>faked this suicide at that point, right. <v Speaker 7>Right, my Dearveellant. <v Speaker 6>So I investigated Derek Lindsay's affairs, and I found that <v Speaker 6>what Compris had referred to as the kindly act of <v Speaker 6>friend in helping him back under his feet was in <v Speaker 6>reality the mortgaging of his entire the optical effects then <v Speaker 6>he stood to inherit the theare on Humphrey's death. <v Speaker 1>Therefore, I was convinced that he was the killer. <v Speaker 3>After he had murdered him, he saw that he thought <v Speaker 3>to be my comforts on the stage. <v Speaker 1>Ah, that's why I was slow and stupid, old Chad. <v Speaker 1>I couldn't imagine what motive gave the cold clear nerve to. <v Speaker 6>Suppress all reactions when he saw his supposed victim revived <v Speaker 6>on the stage. <v Speaker 7>Only at that moment did. <v Speaker 1>I realize what was the motive that made him hold <v Speaker 1>his hand. <v Speaker 6>The characteristic that ruled his life. Watson Avarice a morbid <v Speaker 6>love of money. You see, I could detect me during <v Speaker 6>the performance. You'd have had to refund the money to <v Speaker 6>the audience. He has read conquered all other patterns that <v Speaker 6>made him waiting for the performance was finish before he <v Speaker 6>attempted my life. <v Speaker 3>You know how the case is solved. I'll tell you <v Speaker 3>something in confidence. At the end of the play tonight, <v Speaker 3>I was afraid that you made a mistake that up <v Speaker 3>on the case. Uh, Gregson too. <v Speaker 7>And I Watson will tell you something in confident. <v Speaker 1>There were three of us that felt the same way. <v Speaker 6>Being modest, I assure you one, my dear Jeff, in fact, <v Speaker 6>in the future, if it should strike you that I <v Speaker 6>am more well, getting a little over confident of my powers, <v Speaker 6>or perhaps a getting less pains to a face than <v Speaker 6>it deserves, kindly whisper sweet, will you, I shall be <v Speaker 6>infinitely obliged to you. <v Speaker 1>After that was a swell story and a pretty narrow <v Speaker 1>escape for home. <v Speaker 3>He said, almost solve the case too late, unfortunate ended well. <v Speaker 2>The thing that sticks in my mind is the fact <v Speaker 2>that this is one of the very replications when Holmes <v Speaker 2>almost made a serious mistake. <v Speaker 3>We all make take the time, don't we A till <v Speaker 3>I said, we we all make mistakes the time. I suppose, <v Speaker 3>so you mean to turn down and tell me that <v Speaker 3>you never make me think. <v Speaker 2>Well, not when it comes choosing a wine, I don't <v Speaker 2>because I always choose Petrick. Again, it could be, but honestly, doctor, <v Speaker 2>when you choose a Petrie wine, you know it's a <v Speaker 2>good wine because good wine is the only kind of <v Speaker 2>wine the Petrie family makes. And it's easy to understand <v Speaker 2>why when you realize that ever since they started the <v Speaker 2>Petrie business way back in the eighteen hundreds, the Petrie <v Speaker 2>family has handed on down from father to son, from <v Speaker 2>father to son to highly developed fine art of wine. <v Speaker 1>Man. <v Speaker 2>Yes, the Petrie family has been making wine for generation. <v Speaker 2>That's why, no matter what type can you prefer for <v Speaker 2>any a case, you can't go wrong with a Petree <v Speaker 2>wine because Petrie took time to bring you good wine. <v Speaker 1>Well, doctor Watson, do you care to give us a <v Speaker 1>clue about next week? <v Speaker 7>Your lock on? <v Speaker 3>See you next week?
