Well that night you were here that night Michael was killed He told you she was in the house with me all evening, but she wasn't Without with him working through the park. Why didn't you tell the police? I couldn't I couldn't I was afraid of what he might do to me You don't know her mr. Barns. He killed me if he thought I was telling you this, but I've got to tell somebody Wait a minute The night this fellow Michael was killed your sister made you say that she was home with you all evening That's right. Did she tell you why she wanted you to lie for her? Yes, I Don't believe He had nothing to do with Michael death, but there was no way of proving her He was afraid that police might convict her on circumstantial evidence of I didn't give her an alibi One more question Miss Gola You've been to India, haven't you? Yes, we live there a number When I saw that bird with a yellow bill in the green Well By the way, where is that bird? I don't see it The case is empty. You must have taken it away. I had He was dead Why are you so frightened Carolyn? Have you been talking out of school? No, no, what have you told him? Nothing, nothing. I haven't said a word. You're lying. Go into the house Carolyn. Just a moment. Are you meddling again, mr. Barns? I'm more than meddling. I'm going to protect the state's key witness in this case against you Oh, you have told it. Yes. Yes. I told him everything. I don't care what you do to me Be quiet How long do you think you can keep this up miss Paula? Aren't five cold-blooded murders enough for you? No, we're born on the police, Carolyn. Hurry. I'll keep her here until they arrive Carolyn, don't you dare on the police. I tell you she'll kill you. Don't yes Carolyn come back here digs just about up miss Paula You think you're clever, don't you? Especially but I know who committed those murders. You don't You're wrong mr. Barns. I can prove that you're wrong. You're wasting your breath But I'm innocent I tell you and I can prove it if you give me half a chance. What chance did you give McGraw? I wasn't anywhere near McGraw when he was killed and Michael was my best friend. Tell that to the cop Give me a break, mr. Barns. I'll admit I was with Michael last night. He was killed, but I didn't do it. I Couldn't have done it. You couldn't have done it. No I'll show you why if you let me go back to the place where it happened What do you think I am? I think you're a gentleman mr. Barns And I know you want to find out who murdered your friends You never will find out if they convict me You'll never find the real murderer Won't you believe me? Won't you give me this one last chance? I don't know. Please, please let me prove it or wrong Okay, where do you want to go? Back to the edge of the cliff Michael and I were standing just about here mr. Barns. Yes, go on We were talking about the mysterious murders that had taken place on these blasts overlooking the harbor We were joking about the fact that I was a woman dressed in white You're in white again tonight, Miss Gola. Yes, it's my favorite color We stood here for a while and then the cold air chilled me so I asked Michael from coach May I have your coat, please mr. Barns? The idea I want to show you what happened. Well, do you have to be that graphic? Yes, it's important The details are terribly important. All right. You can have my coat But I'm warning you miss Cola. I know the game Flipping a silk loose over a man's neck is done more easily when it coats off That's why all the victims were found in their shirt sleeves, but Michael was the only one I knew I couldn't possibly have had Emotives for killing the others. They're complete strangers to me. That's not much of a defense Psychopathic murderers often kill with automotives. They do it for the thrill it gives them Whether they know their victims or not All right continue with your story miss cola Well after I put on Michael's coat. I started toward the house, and then I missed my bag Yeah, I guess I left it near the edge than this over there somewhere beside that rock What's the matter? It's not another bag over there. Why decide the rock get it mr. Barns and bring it here. Why bring it here? Oh No, you'll bring it here All right, if you're that frightened of me, I feel Just an ordinary bag. I don't know why you were afraid of picking it up. Nothing could I knew you couldn't resist another victim mr. Barnes But you forgot about my strong hand and this coat I borrowed from you You should have known better than to try that trick while I still had it on Other ways of committing murder miss cola, and I'm sure a psychopathic killer like yourself knows most of them Yes, I do. Hey where you are More than I thought dream the truth When I'd gone in that bag that was the chief's idea You underrated our police force barn We've suspected you for some time We couldn't get the goods on you till tonight Yes Didn't you know there were women to take My sister and I have been leading you on Ever since you killed Michael In all the time I was Figuring I could pin the rap on you That's fine boy gave me the willies and That of course leads to the gimmies Well, look here.
