СЦЕНА ПРОИСШЕСТВИЕ

Narrator: Edward Ratchett is found dead in his train compartment on the Orient Express; a dozen, seemingly unconnected suspects deny any involvement, and Belgian private inspector Hercule Poirot is desperate to solve the case. A few years before, three year-old Daisy Armstrong was kidnapped by a man named Cassetti, who collected a ransom but killed the child anyway. Cassetti managed to escape from justice. Poirot concludes that Ratchett and Cassetti are one and the same.

 

Бук: Poirot, you are the greatest detective alive. Investigating the crime is a piece of cake for you. I know your powers. Take command of this investigation! No, no, do not refuse.

Пуаро:- I need to think about it.

Бук: See, to us it is serious – I speak for the Compagnie Internationale des Wagons Lits. By the time the Jugo-Slavian police arrive, how simple if we can present them with the solution! Otherwise delays, annoyances, a million and one inconveniences. Perhaps, who knows, serious annoyance to innocent people. But we can easily avoid it if you solve this crime.

Пуаро: “And suppose I do not solve it?”

Бук: “Ah, mon cher!” “I know your reputation. I know something of your methods. I This is the ideal case for you.

Пуаро: To look up the past of this people, to check if they lie or not. I have to spend a lot of time and energy But in truth, this problem intrigues me. And your faith touches me, my friend. Well, you place the matter in my hands.

Bouk: “Good – we are all at your service.” Well, “The murderer is with us – on the train now…” lets inform passengers

*****************************************************************************

Бук:-Dear passengers. We're in trouble!

Наталья:-What happened?!

Пуаро-The passenger died, Ratchet!

МакКуин: -They finally got to him!

Пуаро-How do you know he was murdered

Бук : We didn’t announce it/

МакКуин-He had excellent health, but he had many enemies!

Мэри-Murder, here?!

Пуаро-So...someone on this train is a murderer and I will find him, he is definitely among us!

Мэри-I suppose it's time for bed? It's late, we'll decide tomorrow!

Пуаро-No! Stop!

Арбетнот -I’ll sleep here where everyone can see me and I can see everyone!

Букк -Exactly, good idea!

Хаббард-Killer, you hear me, don't touch me, I won't hurt you.

Арбетнот-Who take up the knife?!

Пуаро-You can stay here for a while, I'll be right back.

Пуаро уходит*

Хардман-God, I can't sit there!

Арбетнот-Why? Are you a racist?

Хардман-I respect all races. If you mix red wine and white, it's going to ruin both of you!

Арбетнот-I like a good rose!

Мери-Me too....

Арбетнот-The real killer is right here! One of u people!

Миссис Хабард-He's inside!

Пуаро-Coffee of the dead man was mixed with the Barbital! What's the meaning of that? Who did this?

Беддоес-I bought it here!

Бук -McQueen! You wanted out!

Арбетнот и МакКуин уходят*

Пуаро-Mary Debenham, were you acquainted with Dr. Arbuthnot? Remember, the law does not forbid you to be silent.

Мэри-No, never!

Мери-Cassetti's a scoundrel and deserved to die!

Арбетнот стреляет в Пуаро*

Арбетнот-It's not her, I did it!

СЦЕНА В ТУНЕЛЕ

Все сидят за столом*

Автор-Poirot is about to solve the murder, everything is almost solved, and the train will soon be repaired!

Пуаро I have two versions of this case. The first that the killer had escaped. He was provided with a suit of Wagon Lit uniform, which he wore over his ordinary clothes, and a pass-key which enabled him to gain access to Mr. Ratchett’s compartment in spite of the door’s being locked.

Букк And … Mr. Ratchett was under the influence of Barbital.This man stabbed him and left the compartment through the communicating door leading to Mrs. Hubbard’s compartment

Хаббард That’s so (кивает головой)

Букк However “No, no, and again no! That is an explanation that will not hold water.

It is deficient in a dozen minor points.The crime was not committed so – M. Poirot must know that perfectly well.”

Пуаро- yep, M. Bouk no one could have done it alone! You were all connected to the Armstrong family!  And the handkerchief, if the English alphabet, is the letter “H”, but if the Russian alphabet, is the letter “N”which means Natalia Dragomirova!

Наталья-How...?

Пуаро-Mrs. Hubbard, actually.....

Хаббард-Yes, it's me, grandma Daisy Armstrong! I planned this! “Ratchett had escaped justice in America.
There was no question as to his guilt.

Пуаро-Precisely! The knife plunged Arbuthnot, only a doctor will be able so gracefully to stab and not to damage blood vessels! You said you weren't killing but treating, and that's right, you were in the army, you shot me in the shoulder with great precision, but you weren't going to kill me!

Mary, you were the governess and Pilar was Daisy's nanny, that's what you said when you said you were caught off guard! Cassetti stole Daisy while you were sleeping! And you, even train conductor is the father of an innocent French servent who was blamed of Amstrong family case.

“Then there was Hardman.He seemed quite definitely not to belong to the Armstrong household.

I could only imagine that he had been in love with the French girl.

Hardman You are right again. I loved my dear Susana. But because of Casetti she was a main suspect and she couldn’t bear it and committed a suicide. I hate everything about Cassetti and happy that he is dead now. He is a scum.

Хаббард-Arrest me, they didn't do anything, it's my fault! My life was ruined when my Daisy and Sonya had been dead. I do not live just exist…. And all these people are very kind and good,,, they have a right for a new life. I believe Helena can start living … she will manage

Пуаро-No one is to blame, Cassetti took the life of one person, but broke the lives of a few more people!

Бук- It seems to me that the first version is right

Автор-The train arrived at its destination, Hercule Poirot told police that the killer had escaped, all were released.

Полицейский-That you're Hercule Poirot?

Пуаро-Yes, it’s me!

Полицейский-You have a new investigation.
