How do you do. I am sorry sir, but no, i brought mrs. Halliday all the way downtown just to make sure she likes it. Oh please, its our anniversary. First anniversary. Its a little present for her. It wont be the same tomorrow, dont you see . Please . Lets see, it was, uh number, uh 128. So, would you mind yes, sir. Ill be right back. Thanks. 128, what a fine, round, high sounding name to hang over our mantle. Think so . Yep. What did your husband give you for your first anniversary, mrs. Halliday . A 128 to hang over my mantle. [whistling] tell me darling, what is it . Well no, let me guess. Uhh, no. All right, i give up. Mark, i dont care what it is. Just as long as you picked it out. Lets celebrate at home tonight, huh . Champagne, and well hang 128 over mark i said 128. You made a mistake. No, this is it, sir. Well, thats not the painting i saw this morning. Its 128, see for yourself. I dont see the joke, mark. Debbie, wait a minute. No, let me debbie, i never saw that painting before in my life. There must be some explanation. Who put you up to that . Back there. Well, how did it get back there . I dont know, sir, youll have to ask Mister Harrison. Would you like to leave it here, sir . Ill have Mister Harrison call you. No. Ill take it with me. [music] is it jocelyn . I dont know, mark. Well, you ought to know your own sister. You know her better than i do, you were ma jocelyn. Of course, she could have a double. Well, lets see, when was it she disappeared . April, four years ago, wasnt it . Five. Five years ago last month. I had hoped youd be over it by now. I thought i was. Newspaper clippings, magazines stories, ive kept them all. I finally had a letter from the detectives, you know. Told me sight without leaving a trace. Shes unforgettable, isnt she . Im sorry. Shes a little older than i remember her. Shows around the eyes. Were all a little older, mark. Hmmm. Hey look. Here are the initials and the date. September, 19 that was three years ago. Well, it mustve been done before she went to europe. Well, i dont know mark wait a minute, what do you mean, europe . I wasnt going to mention it. Doesnt make any difference now, i guess. I had a letter from her. When . Couple of years ago, she was in switzerland. Where is it . I burned it. Well, what did you do that for . I didnt want you to know, mark. You divorced her for desertion. She wasnt the right person for you, and youd found someone who was, debbie. So, i kept it quiet. Where in switzerland was she . Oh, i wish this hadnt come up, mark. Never mind that. Did she say anything about me . No. Apparently, there was someone else. She doesnt love you, mark. She never did. [music] i guess youre right. She never did. Its on the table. Im hungry. Want me to carve . All right. Whats that doing there . I thought it was very appropriate. Theres no reason to hide it behind the sofa. Shes been looking over my shoulder debbie, please, i can do without hysterics. Marriage. Shes in your mind when you kiss me stop it im sorry. Oh, oh mark, so am i. I i i couldnt help it. I showed that painting to jeff. Hes almost certain its jocelyn. Her. When . Two years ago. She was in switzerland. Has he seen her . No. Nobodys seen her. Its a great waste. She was born to be seen. I remember the rain. An old yellow slicker thrown over her shoulders and a scarf tied around her head. Glowing, radiant her hair, skin, her eyes. She didnt even look wet. Can we change the subject . Yes, of course. Lets eat. Ill return that painting tomorrow morning. [phone rings] yes, what about it . Who . Clymer, clymer. Mister harrison says hes an amateur painter, shows a lot of promise. He brought in the picture last week. Harrison doesnt know how it got mixed up with yours. Are you sure about that . Seems a strange coincidence, but thats what the man said. Think we should go up there and look around . Ill let you know. Thanks it was about the painting. It was done by a man named clymer. He lives in shell harbor. What are you going to do about it . Nothing. You shouldnt have married me, mark. Oh, honey, dont start that again. Its true. She still has a hold on you. Youre still in love with her. Her. You want her back. Debbie, as far as im concerned shes dead. But suppose she isnt. Suppose shes living in shell harbor right now. All right, lets settle it once and for all. Go pack your things. We are going up to shell harbor. Now . Now. People went to florida. I found that out. I suppose you dont have anything either. How long you gonna be here . Day . A week . Well, i dont know. I got just one left. 10 a day, 60 a week, one day in advance. Good, ill take it. Are you sure thats all youve got . Youll like it all right, beautiful setting. Ill have the utilities turned on right away. Are you positive theres nothing else available . Thats the only place in town, mister. Nice, comfortable place, too. You can take it from me, the willman cottage is i know all about the willman cottage. I lived there five years ago. Theres no electricity. No. A man from the Power Company will be over right away. About what . Does it look the same . I told you, nothing ever changes around here. Did you ask the real estate man about Mister Clymer . No, i didnt. Why not . Because i thought it was more important to have a roof over our heads. Its getting late and this is the last place in town. You dont have to take my head thats interesting. What is . Flowers and theyre fresh. Really . Lily of the valley. Werent they jocelyns favorite flowers . [music] how did she do it, i wonder . Throw an old slicker over her shoulders and a scarf over her head, it looked like a magazine cover. Take those off. They are hers, i can see her in them now. Are you trying to tell me theyve been hanging in the closet for five years . Shes been staying here, mark. Shes in this town right now. Thats ridiculous. Oh, mark mark, darling stop trying to protect her. Why dont you face it. What she did to you isnt enough. Now, shes going to ruin us, too. You know that nonsense. You know its true. It isnt true. I dont believe shes here. I feel kind of foolish running around town, asking people hello. Glad i found you in. Heard you people had taken this house. Im arthur clymer. May i come in . Of course. Thank you. Im mike halliday. This is my wife. Hello. How do you do . Im a neighbor of yours. Up on the point. I remembered this morning i left a few things down here. Thought i better stop by and pick them up. Hope im not intruding. No, no. No, not at all. You, uh you dont mind then, go ahead. Thank you. Im pretty proud of this. Like a mother with her first born in a way. This is my first attempt at sculpture. When did you do this . Couple of months ago. I was living here at the time, thanks to the willmans. Its a nice piece of work. Thank you. Do you use a model for that . Why yes, you know her . I did once. Then you must come and see us. Just a minute. Hmm . Dont these belong to her . They look familiar. I didnt realize mark, why dont you walk home with Mister Clymer and carry these for him. Oh nonsense, i can take them. Im sure mark would be happy to, wouldnt you, mark . Not just now, debbie, some other time. It isnt far. I said, not know. Come see us when you feel up to it, halliday. Night. Thats the first cowardly thing ive ever seen you do. Welcome. Hello. I was just walking along the ocean, saw your light, thought id [laughs] yourself, ill drop in on old clymer. Charming man brilliant conversationalists wonderful company, and theres a bare chance his wife is home. Jocelyn bless her. Where is she . Just like the rest of them, arent you, halliday . Took one look at the statue, decided you had to see the original. Oh, look, clymer dont apologize. Youre no different from the rest of you . Okay. Jocelyn . Jocelyn we have company. Jocelyn darling come on down for a minute, huh . [laughs] you thought shed come down these stairs, didnt you . Where is she . What happened to her . Happened to her . Nothing could ever happen to jocelyn. Have a drink. No. Aw, come on, have a drink with me. Come on. There. Sorry to disappoint you, halliday. She hasnt been around for quite a while. Bless her little heart. Loves me madly, you know . Writes me letters nearly every day. Go on, drink up, drink up. Its good wine. There, thats better. I asked you where she was. I dont know. I dont want to know. The little cheat. Im getting tired of this, clymer. What happened to jocen . Where is she . I told you, i dont know. You said something about letters. Where are they . [laughs] youre lying, clymer. Where is she . All right. All right. You want to know where she is . Ill tell you. Shes dead. How did she die . Interesting question. [chuckles] someday when the breath leaves the body, there theres death. But its also true we live suspended in each others minds. So perhaps there is no death. What happened to jocelyn . Thats a complicated story and its getting late. Some other time. Right now she was such a thrilling woman. Youve see her face. To kiss that face. To have her always by your side. To know she was mine, to love, to kiss, to hold. Yet never mine completely. Jocelyn can never belong to anybody but herself. No one. No man on earth could possess her, really. Where is she . . Come on. Her grave is right outside. Over there, near the edge of the cliff. You mean shes over there . Youre out of your mind. She isnt over there. She cant be. I cant take it anymore. What do you mean . Im tired of carrying it around. I have to teom Jocelyn Jocelyn i had to get away from her, couldnt take it anymore. I left her in new york and came up here. Took the cottage alone for a couple of weeks. Alone as if i could ever live without her. One night she came up. Didnt tell anybody she was coming, least of all me. I heard the door open looked up. There she was no you didnt, your lying. There was another man, always anymore. I dont remember what happened. She was there talking to me laughing at me telling me she wanted a divorce. The next thing i remember she was lying at my feet. Thats what happened. But you werent there no one was there but jocelyn and me. How do you know i killed her . How did you. Mark. Mark, get up. Jeff. How did he know . How did he know . We didnt know. We had to guess. I told him how i thought it had to resort to psychology. I saw her, halliday. It was a brutal thing to do to you. We had to do it. Who are you . My names iversen, detective inspector, homicide. And you made the painting and the sculpture and arranged for the cottage. Yes. And she isnt buried over there. No. She was found where you buried her. There was a landslider slumped off fisherman found her. When the laboratory reported who it was, we well, we knew you did it, but we had to have proof. Did debbie know . No. Thats something, anyway. She was right. I never should have married her. There never could hitchcock and so Mark Halliday finally found the bluebird of happiness. It had been there all the time. In any theatrical presentation, the next to closing spot is deemed the most advantageous. That explains the bravo, bravo. That was a real showstopper, in every sense of the word. Now, i see there is just time enough for me to wish you pleasant dreams, and a [theme music] hitchcock good evening, ladies. Has your husband recently acquired a faraway look in his eyes . In the event something unforeseen happens to you, do all of your worldly goods go to him .
