What on earth is Pat piping up to? Everything is the wrong bloody place!
[Jimmy turns on the lights; revealing that they are not in the right apartment]
Donovan:
This isn't Pat's flat.
Jimmy:
[excited whisper] Jeepers!
Donovan:
[reading a letter on the table] Mrs. Ernestine Grant...
[beat]
Donovan:
Oh, Lord! we're in *36B*, not *46B*!
Jimmy:
We better get out here before she finds us!
[someone snoring sounds]
Jimmy, Donovan:
[the two men burst into giggles]
[the two men are about to leave when Jimmy notices something shocking]
Jimmy:
Look!
[Donovan turns to see a pair of a woman's feet sticking out behind the packing cases in the flat]
Donovan:
[genuinely shocked] Good God!
[They walk over and discover Mrs. Ernestine Grant's corpse concealed behind the curtain]
Patricia Matthews, Mildred:
[singing in the background] Life is just a bowl of cherries...
[scene shifts to Hastings and Poirot watching Patricia and Mildred singing on the stairs]
Patricia Matthews, Mildred:
[singing cont] Life's too mysterious, life's too mysterious... You work, you play, you worry so/ But you can't get your dough/ while you glow, glow, glow!
Donovan:
[He and Jimmy walk out of the apartment; looking perturbed] What do we do?
Jimmy:
[pause] I don't know.
Donovan:
[to Patricia and Mildred] Pat, Mildred. Something's happened.
Patricia Matthews:
What is it?
Donovan:
There's a dead woman down here.
Mildred:
[as she and Patricia rush down the stairs; unaware that Poirot is close by; shocked] Oh my God!
