There will a be a short delay, ladies and
gentlemen! Senor Carini is not well!
You have to wait to hear your great Carini, Mr. Holmes. Maybe it
will be called off.
Don´t be optimistic sergeant. I know
you don´t like fiddles. But you will
like this one.
I play the violin as a hobby, but Carini is one of the greatest
who ever played.
Aren´t you sergeant Flaherty? Come
backstage please! There´s something wrong with senor
Carini.
No fiddles after all!
Come on Mr. Holmes!
A doctor and ambulance are on the
way sergeant! Is the
gentleman with you in the police?
I wish he was. This is Sherlock
Holmes. The great English
detective.
Thank you Flaherty. Now, let us look at
Carini.
He´s dead, I think it was a suicide. He seems to have
used gas!
Strange… It smells
familiar…
Whatever he used it smells bad!
This seems to have contained the substance that caused Carini´s death … A very thin glass vial.
Seems to be some kind of
cyanide gas. It is well dissipated since the room
has been opened.
Dissipated or not, get your nose away from that. I would lose my job if anything
happened to you.
There is nothing for you in this case Mr. Holmes.
Carini took his life.
Why are you so sure?
What else could it be? There are no
windows and Carini had the door
locked from the inside. The key is still in the lock.
I still think it was
murder sergeant!
The concert tonight was to be his big moment. The
last one. Even if he wanted to commit suicide, he
would surely wait till after his triumph. No,
gentlemen, it was something else…
I don´t want to have a lot of bad publicity about murder in my theatre. Keep
your nose out of it. Let the police
handle it!
I´m beginning to dislike you, Mr.
Small. And it will make things
easier for me!
Sergeant Flaherty was puzzled… But his respect for Holmes caused him to obey
the famous detective …
What´s next, sir?
Let´s see, first, we´ll go to my hotel and get my
fiddle. The n také me to the finest glass blower in
the city?
You must know what you are
doing, sir, but I don´t.
Hardly to be expected, sergeant! I
am not really sure
too.
Don’t be impatient, sergeant! The action
is about to begin.
Precisely! We’ll wait. Také your
time on this job.
Very thin glass! You say you want a small wial that you
can seal, of the same
thickness?
Three long hours later…
Holmes and
sergeant Flaherty
had all the material
they needed but
someone else was
beginning to worry
about their activity …
I don´t get …
Jump for your life Flaherty!
Watch it, you fool!
How in the world did you save that glass vial? I would have dropped
everything.
Just exactly what I was supposed to
do, I think!
Back at the theatre a few minutes later…
Are you really going to play that violin, sir?
Perhaps not as well as Carini, but I shall
play!
Look out, Holmes!
Never mind him, get Holmes!
Tell your employer to try it himself next time!
I heard a commotion! Is anything
wrong?
Do you play the violin, Holmes? What kind of a joke is this?
I doubt if you’ll think it very funny. I see you replaced the broken door. Very
good.
That glass is the same thickness as the original,
now if you’ll close the door, we’ll have duplicated the setting in which Carini
met his death!
Flaherty was impatient with his guest’s deliberate actions … But Lyman Small watched
with something like fear in his eyes…
No, Mr Small,
everything is fine! Will
you take us up to Carini’s
dressing room?
Very impressive! I’m a busy man, Holmes. I won’t waste time with
your childish tricks.
That the vial of cyanide gas shattered when Carini hit a note that perfectly matched the harmonics of that vial!
This vial is identical – As is the cyanide inside it!
This is crazy! Stop it. What will it prove?
I will play the selection poor Carini was rehearsing when he died… with possibly the same results!
Yes, you will Mr.
Small! You stay till
Mr. Holmes says so.
See, Mr. Small? My experiment
worked!
Stop it! Stop it! Please!
It’s vibrating. Soon it will shatter?
We’ll all die like
rats! Let me out!
C-Cyanide? In that vial? Holmes, you’re crazy!
The fear was building in Lyman Samll until he couldn’t stand it! Panic overcame reason.
Yes, yes. I did it! I’ll confess! I can smell
the cyanide!
You did it. Didn’t you? You put that vial in this
room!
That’s not cyanide you smell. It’s
almond oil. Smells exactly like it!
I owe you an apology
sir! I thought
you were wrong for a while.
You see Flaherty,
sometimes it pays to listen to a fiddle once in
a while!
