the door, sealed it, and nature took care of rest
e did She died quite easily, much easier than others.
(17:07):
Why you mean, why do I do it? It's a
very simple explanation, young woman. This is my business. Yeah,
here's my business. Some men make their fortunes in stock,

small town papers, and then I'd write letters, Oh, most
interesting letters. I needed the secretary of housekeeper, nurse, excellent salary,
unusual accommodation. Ah, I knew this had happens indeed, and
(18:14):
they brought all their worldly bloggings with them, jeering and suitcase,
little here, a little there? Or why should it be
most profitable? Now in this room, for example, don't don't
make her no, Perhaps it would be better not to
if the one in here came to be my housekeeper,
or let me see how wrong it was it whole well,
no matter. She came as a housekeeper, and after she
(18:34):
went into a retirement in that room I found in
her suitcase such interesting bond. While I tell you my

uncertainty that makes my little business so very fascinating. Kill

thought when she went in here. Then I pressed this
button so and the floor flopped open as she stood
on it, and down she went, down, down, down in
the bottom a bit of rhyme I did. Oh yes,
(19:40):
I tried out so many different ways of killing them.
If you wonder why they'll never find me out for
I'll tell you why, because I'm much too smart for
all of them. Oh, not perfect crimes, no, nothing invantire,
but just cleverness and choosing the women I do my
business with, and an equal cleverness and doing away with
the worse. And dude. Now then I tell you, oh,
(20:01):

enemies of the star. Same story of man's inhumanity to
man in one of the strangest places this world has
ever known. But be with us again as usual next

says about how improper eating due to wartime living may
cause a person to become decision in vitamin B one

when she got to run down, So she took ironized
each tablets and you know how grand she looks and
feels again.

Do you hear me? I wanna know where she is?
Why I don't think I quite know what you're talking about?
Why do you lie to me?

Why do you lie to me?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
She was here, she was of them. What makes you
so sure a letter? You wrote it? The first one?
I waited a whole month, and then I came here,
and as soon as I saw you, I thought something
was wrong. And now I know there is my sister Ella.
Where is she? You've got to tell me. What if
I tell you a game that I don't know what
you're talking about, I'll go to the police. They'll make
(14:48):
you tell the truth. I know she came here, I
know she did. Why do you have why because you're
being a very foolish young lady, very foolish. Indeed, there's
no need to get excited. Of course, your sister's here.
I'm very happy to she's hees. Yes, I'm very happy too.
So you can take me to her. Please take me
(15:09):

(15:32):
Why didn't she write? Why didn't she tell me? I
done this? Hall? And you can ask her that for yourself.
This isn't the trick, is it? My dear young lady,
you have easy the most suspicious mind of anyone I've
ever met. Why, I'm quite a helpless old man, and
you always have recourse as you put it to the police.
Oh yeah, I's in this room.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
I'll go right to him, all right, it's not well,

What oh.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Now, then, my dear Betty. We understand each other clearly,
don't we, Fella. There's nothing like a complete understanding, now,
is there? Feller? Oh, it wasn't so difficult. I shut
the door, sealed it, and nature took care of rest
e did She died quite easily, much easier than others.
(17:07):
Why you mean, why do I do it? It's a
very simple explanation, young woman. This is my business. Yeah,
here's my business. Some men make their fortunes in stock,
some bomb some in business, and this is my business.
Why why? Why? Why is any business conducted profit? My dear,
and I've made quite a need for the profit. Olders.
I'm a very safe one too, God. Yes, and you're
(17:31):
the very first to come wandering about looking for one
of my uh customers, the first, and I assure you
the last. Oh yes, thirty women have come in my
front door. Yeah, thirty one, including you and Ella h.
Come on along. Well, I'll tell you all about them.
You'll find it most instructive, Yes, indeed, Now come, don't
want to don't hold my upside mus He's color as
(17:51):
they twist and turn. Oh yes, it's best. I hold
your arm. Get lost easier around this house, My most
interesting house, you think, yes, worth dirt for you, most
interesting array. I used to read the wand heads in
small town papers, and then I'd write letters, Oh, most
interesting letters. I needed the secretary of housekeeper, nurse, excellent salary,
unusual accommodation. Ah, I knew this had happens indeed, and
(18:14):
they brought all their worldly bloggings with them, jeering and suitcase,
little here, a little there? Or why should it be
most profitable? Now in this room, for example, don't don't
make her no, Perhaps it would be better not to
if the one in here came to be my housekeeper,
or let me see how wrong it was it whole well,
no matter. She came as a housekeeper, and after she
(18:34):
went into a retirement in that room I found in
her suitcase such interesting bond. While I tell you my
eyes fairly pop right my head. Oh yes, it's the
uncertainty that makes my little business so very fascinating. Kill
thirty will nourish, good hands A way now down here,
don't make me put you along, you'll thirty women, that's
not difficult. Fush women is such fools anxious to believe
(18:58):
what they want to believe for life, And you gave
me death. Hi, you're the smart one. That's why I'm
even borrowing showing you my work. I never did the
others And showing you around won't do harm. You won't
be talking long you women die now in this room, Well,
look you did to show you. No, No, don't let
me no, no, please don't. No, you see there's no
(19:20):
reason for excitement, just an empty room. That's what she
thought when she went in here. Then I pressed this
button so and the floor flopped open as she stood
on it, and down she went, down, down, down in
the bottom a bit of rhyme I did. Oh yes,
(19:40):
I tried out so many different ways of killing them.
If you wonder why they'll never find me out for
I'll tell you why, because I'm much too smart for
all of them. Oh, not perfect crimes, no, nothing invantire,
but just cleverness and choosing the women I do my
business with, and an equal cleverness and doing away with
the worse. And dude. Now then I tell you, oh,
(20:01):
oh yes, yes, yes, why do You'll never get me?
Yell as seeing it done eas in my head? No
corpus dilective, and if there is one, no evidence of violence. Ah,
that's the secret, you very frightened. Take a pair of
quick time. There's no coorus dilective to that, I can
tell you. Not when you bury them in a slab
of concrete, are that's the secret? Like who you been
with you? Now? This room, let me show you. I

the door and press this button here like this. You

And guess what is pumping my hair? Do you hear
me pumping the air? Yes, that's clever, isn't it. You
breathe and soon there'll be nothing there to and then
you'll die and the police do find your body. No
mock of violence, nothing but asshyxiation, the most mysterious that
(21:06):
they'll say. In time, they decide it's all quite natural. Embolism,
heart attack. Oh, they'll think up a fancy name to
clear their fires. Esty, they always do. It is nice
for him to live our first office the pump. Now,
