- U. N. Owen: Ladies and gentlemen, this is your host speaking. My name is U.N. Owen. I have brought you here to charge you with the following crimes: General André Salvé, Croix de Guerre, that you achieved honor from dishonor and sent five men to their certain deaths. Ilona Morgan, actress, that you did bring about the death of your husband in a most cold-blooded and ruthless manner. Doctor Edward Armstrong, that you did kill Mrs. Ivy Benson and betray your sacred trust. Michel Raven, entertainer, that you were guilty of the murder of William and Lisa Stern, whose bodies, when they were found, were almost unrecognizable. Vera Clyde, secretary, that you murdered your sister's fiancee, Richard Barclay, by slow, deliberate poison. Hugh Lombard, that you were guilty of the death of Jennifer Hayes, who was to bear your child. Arthur Cannon, judge of the Queen's bench, that you were responsible for the death of an innocent man, one Edward Seton, who was hanged according to your judgment. Wilhelm Blore, that by perjured testimony, you sent Kord Landor to a cold and lonely death in a prison cell. Otto and Elsa Martino, that you maliciously and brutally caused the death of your invalid employer for your own financial gain. Prisoners at the bar, have you anything to say in your defense?
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: Stop playing cat and mouse with me. If you...
- [he glances around, and lowers his voice]
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: If you want to kill the others I shan't interfere. Just leave me alone.
- Judge Arthur Cannon: Listen, why don't I trust you, and you trust me?
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: The famous last words?
- Michel Raven: Well I don't know about the rest of you, but that tape didn't say any lies about me. I was coming home from a party. Late. Drunk. And I was driving fast. FAST. Two people in the road ahead. I ran over them. William and Louisa Stern. Two years married. Very sad.
- Judge Arthur Cannon: Were you not charged?
- Michel Raven: I had a little influence. As you know, that can help. But they punished me. They took my driving license away.
- [He gulps down his drink]
- Michel Raven: Good night.
- Ilona: Ha ha, I'm sure you all know the story of the two Englishmen who were cast away on a desert island, who never spoke to each other because they had not been introduced.
- Michel Raven: [solemn singing] One little indian left all alone.
- Michel Raven: [extended pause, speaking] He hung himself, then there were none.
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: After you, Judge.
- Judge Arthur Cannon: Doctor, I insist...
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: Please, I insist, After you.
- Judge Arthur Cannon: My dear Doctor... .Please.
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: Alright, We'll go together.
- Judge Arthur Cannon: You're not pissed, are you?
- Dr. Edward Armstrong: You think so?
