I wish we had a few francs for a porter.
Well, I'd help if I had a spare hand.
Bloody thing.
You won't say that when it makes our million.
No, I won't. I'll be chasing flying pigs.
What was that, dear?
Nothing, sweetheart.
Here we are. That wasn't so bad, was it?
Now, what do you think's less bumpy,
by the window, or on the aisle?
It's an insect.
I don't mean to be funny, but it is basically an insect.
A very valuable insect.
- And me? - You're my wife.
Careful!
Sorry, it's a bit precious.
Where are you going?
Calais.
Then London.
Like us!
Are you looking for someone?
No.
I wondered what the time was, that's all.
Sometimes this train leaves late.
It's ten past three.
Perfect, then.
Are you interested in bees?
Oh, don't, Tommy.
Why not? She might be, you never know.
My husband is an enthusiast.
And a businessman.
People don't really think about honey,
just plaster it on their bread in the morning,
but the biology that goes on behind it is...
Take a look.
That's a pedigree queen if ever I saw one.
She wants to get out.
Ah, it's just until I get her home.
I can't drag her along on a lead all day, now, can I?
No, I suppose not.
Plenty people don't know about queens.
- For example... - Actually,
I need to go to the buffet. Please excuse me.
Of course.
Something's up with that girl.
Did you see the look on her face?
Are there any sandwiches?
I thought I was followed onto the train.
- And were you? - I don't know.
There was a man at Pigalle,
and just now on the platform.
I can't do this.
I only said I could because I felt bad,
and you said you were in danger.
Someone is trying to kill me, Jane.
All I'm asking is you carry a package to London.
Who are you looking for?
You're being very nosey today, Tuppence.
Steady your nerves if you have to.
I'll see you in London.
We'll go dancing.
Dominic.
For old times' sake.
Don't.
We had fun, didn't we?
Jane, go.
- What about you? - Just go.
Good grief, what was that?
Just the noise of the train, darling.
Probably nothing.
Didn't sound like nothing.
What's going on?
You read too many detective novels, do you know that?
Nonsense.
Well, you hear the slightest noise on a train
and you think catastrophe, murder, mayhem.
You should read the paper more.
Well, what about that girl, do you think she's coming back?
Tuppence!
At least we know her name.
Jane Finn.
Nothing.
Two weeks, and not a word of it in your
beloved British press.
You have to let it go.
Something happened.
Why else were we moved onto a new train?
No explanation.
Leave it to the police, Tuppence.
I would if I thought the police were doing anything,
if I thought they were the least bit interested.
And what did happen to that girl?
I'm sure she turned up somewhere sooner or later.
Maybe I should just phone that inspector again.
I wish you'd put your energy into our actual business.
Could you move over?
No. Watch Tiffin because she just...
- I am watching Tiffin. - Oh, Tommy, there isn't room. Ow!
I do put my energy into our business.
I painted the signs.
And I put up the hives.
Would you answer the door?
Mum?
It'll be the postman with a pile of bills.
Dad?
Why can't you look on the bright side?
Might be an order.
Might be someone asking for a tonne of honey.
Oh, Tommy, it's too early for rampant optimism.
Rampant something would be nice.
What does it mean when the ink is red?
Have you packed your trunk?
Chin up.
Back soon.
Tiffin!
Tiffin!
Tiffin, get away from the hives!
Tiffin.
Tiffin, how many times have I told you?
Here you are, darling.
Thank you.
I found these...
in the bin.
We need a steady income, Tommy.
I'm doing everything that the book says.
We were conned.
