| [00:02.76] | Chapter 3 |
| [00:06.06] | Early next morning the house was quiet. |
| [00:10.17] | Suddenly there was a cry from the room next to Roger's, his mother's room. |
| [00:19.62] | Roger opened his eyes and looked at the clock. It was nearly seven o'clock. |
| [00:29.76] | He got out of bed and opened the door quietly. |
| [00:36.07] | At the same time the door of his mother's room opened and Diane came out. |
| [00:45.14] | Her face was very white. 'Roger! It's Mother! |
| [00:53.07] | I brought a cup of coffee for her and I found her dead. |
| [01:01.21] | She's dead…dead in her bed,' she cried. |
| [01:09.91] | Roger went quickly to the door of his mother's room and looked in. |
| [01:17.86] | The window was open but the room was warm. |
| [01:23.53] | Molly was on the bed, one hand under her head. |
| [01:30.29] | Roger went across to the bed and put his hand on her arm. It was cold. |
| [01:39.30] | On the little table next to the bed was a hot cup of coffee and an empty cup. |
| [01:49.86] | 'I'm going to call the doctor,' Diane said. 'She's dead,' Roger said slowly. |
| [02:02.71] | His face, too, was white. 'Mother is dead!' Diane walked across the room to the door. |
| [02:14.52] | 'I'm going to phone the doctor,' she said again.'Wait a minute!' Roger called. |
| [02:25.31] | 'Let's tell the family first.' 'Family! Nobody loved Mother!' |
| [02:35.49] | Diane went out and ran downstairs. |
| [02:40.62] | Roger slowly went downstairs after her and stood by the telephone. |
| [02:48.86] | 'Dr Pratt, this is Diane Clarkson. It's my mother—she's dead. Can you come quickly?' |
| [03:05.81] | Diane put the phone down. 'It isn't true, Roger! Mother dead! |
| [03:17.13] | Daddy died last winter, and now Mother.' Diane began to cry. |
| [03:25.18] | 'Don't cry, Diane,' Roger said. 'Let's go upstairs and tell Uncle Albert and Jackie.' |
| [03:36.60] | 'No! You tell them! Nobody loved Mother. You aren't sorry. Look at you! |
| [03:48.75] | You want her money. That's all.' Roger suddenly wanted to hit Diane. |
| [03:58.75] | 'Be quiet!'he said. 'What about you? You didn't love Mother. |
| [04:09.31] | You wanted her money, too. Don't forget that!' 'It's true,' Diane said. |
| [04:18.68] | 'Oh, I can't stay in this house. I'm going out. |
| [04:28.34] | I'm going to the river with the dogs.' 'No,' Roger said. |
| [04:34.97] | 'The doctor's coming and I want you here.' Diane said nothing. |
| [04:46.26] | She went into the kitchen and at once the dogs got up and came to her. |
| [04:53.53] | 'Beautiful dogs! Daddy loved you and Mother loved you. Now I'm going to love you.' |
| [05:06.28] | She opened the back door and went out with the dogs. |
| [05:15.08] | Roger did not move. He stood by the telephone. 'It's true,' he thought. |
| [05:24.89] | 'I am happy about the money. I needed money, and now I'm rich. |
| [05:35.24] | Things are going to be easier for me now. |
| [05:40.01] | But Mother…why didn't I love her more? And now she's dead.' |
| [05:52.19] | Slowly, Roger went back upstairs. He wanted to dress before Dr Pratt arrived. |
| [06:02.77] | Dr Pratt was a little fat man without much hair. |
| [06:10.87] | He was the family doctor and he knew all the Clarkson family very well. |
| [06:18.20] | He went upstairs at once and looked at Molly's body. |
| [06:24.10] | He looked carefully at the cup of coffee and the empty cup on the table next to her bed. |
| [06:34.28] | 'I'm sorry, Roger,' he said. 'Where is Diane? She phoned me.' |
| [06:43.26] | 'She went out with the dogs,' Roger said. |
| [06:48.73] | 'She was angry with me—angry with everyone.'Dr Pratt said nothing for a minute. |
| [06:59.82] | 'This is going to be very difficult. I'm going to phone the police, Roger.' |
| [07:08.08] | 'Police! Why? What's wrong? ’ 'I don't know. Your mother wasn't ill. |
| [07:19.62] | I saw her on Thursday and she was very well. Why did she die? |
| [07:28.22] | I don' t understand. I want to find out.' |
| [07:34.08] | Roger went across to the window and looked out at the garden. |
| [07:42.34] | It was a beautiful summer morning. |
| [07:47.03] | The sky was blue and the garden was green. It was all very quiet. |
| [07:54.04] | His mother loved this garden. But Tom Briggs wanted the garden. |
| [08:05.36] | And Roger wanted the garden, too. Roger felt worse and worse. |
| [08:14.39] | 'Your mother took sleeping tablets,' Dr Pratt said. 'Did you know? |
| [08:22.85] | On Thursday she had a new bottle of tablets, but I can't find it here in her room.' |
| [08:33.20] | 'I didn't know,' Roger said. 'Very well. |
| [08:39.52] | Let's go down-stairs and you can phone the police.' |
| [08:44.78] | Roger went into the kitchen and made some coffee. |
| [08:51.39] | Just then Diane came in with the dogs.'Roger,' she said. 'Look, I'm sorry. |
| [09:02.51] | I was angry and said some angry things.' 'It doesn't matter,' Roger said. |
| [09:12.07] | 'Here you are, have some coffee. Dr Pratt is phoning the police. |
| [09:19.96] | Did you know Mother took sleeping tablets? Well, the bottle is not in her room.' |
| [09:30.97] | 'What? I don't understand.' Diane took the coffee and began to drink. |
| [09:40.40] | Her eyes looked big and dark. Just then Dr Pratt came into the kitchen. |
| [09:49.77] | 'They're coming at once,' he said. 'Diane—I'm sorry about your mother.' |
| [09:59.99] | 'Dr Pratt, I want to tell you about last night. Everyone was very angry…' |
| [10:09.82] | 'Be quiet!' Roger said quickly.'Diane never thinks before she opens her mouth,' |
| [10:17.94] | he thought angrily.Diane did not look at Roger. |
| [10:24.25] | 'Last night Mother went to bed early because everyone…' |
| [10:31.91] | 'Don't tell me,' Dr Pratt said. 'You can tell the police.' |
| [10:38.90] | Roger's face went red. Suddenly he felt afraid. |
| [10:46.11] | 'The police are going to talk to everyone, and ask questions,' he thought. |
| [10:52.13] | 'And they're going to want answers. It's going to be very difficult.' |
| [11:00.12] | He finished his coffee and stood up. 'I'm going upstairs,' he said. |
| [11:09.89] | 'I'm going to tell Uncle Albert and Jackie about Mother…and about the police.' |

| [03:36.60] | ' No! You tell them! Nobody loved Mother. You aren' t sorry. Look at you! |
| [03:48.75] | You want her money. That' s all.' Roger suddenly wanted to hit Diane. |
