Chapter 2: What is the significance of Vienna in Sherlock Holmes' investigations?
Here, I'll turn the thing off. You haven't come here to listen to a most dark drama. You want a story, don't you, young fool of a lad?
That's right, Doctor.
Well, let's sit down. All right. That's better. Now I'll tell you what. Thank you, Doctor. It began in Vienna in 1889, many, many years before the insane house painter named Schickelgruber had converted that gay city into a place of fear and oppression.
And what were you and Sherlock Holmes doing there, Doctor? Just taking a trip?
Mr. Foreman, in those early days of our association, we didn't have the time or the money for just taking trips. No, no, no. We were in Vienna because Holmes had been engaged in certain highly important investigations. We were staying in a charming little pension inhabited by students and musicians. And on the night the story began, we'd finished dinner and had returned to our room.
I was busy making some notes on the investigation we'd just concluded. And Holmes was scraping away at his beloved violin.
Why can't I get it?
Oh, it sounds very pretty to me.
Pretty, really, old chap. I'm not sure. I hate the fingered one at that.

Chapter 3: Who is Lea Ullenstein and what is her predicament?
They would. Here, Holmes. Will you please tell me what I should do? I cannot go on this way. My... My music is... Now, Fraulein, calm yourself.
I shall be most happy to help you, and if you will lead the way, we'll see how persuasive we can be with Chandelier Paddy.
That is the studio here, Holmes. At the end of the corridor.
I see. Now, let me begin, lady. You'd better let me do most of the talking.
He must be out. That is possible.
Now, locked. I think, bearing in mind our party's profession, we'll take the liberty of opening his door.
That doesn't look a very complicated lock to me. Oh, I think this skeleton key will do the trick. It's very dangerous here, Holmes. If Shandor finds you... Oh, no, no, no, no. Don't worry about that product. We're perfectly capable of taking care of ourselves.
Ah, there we are. Close the door behind you, Willie Watson.
I can't see a thing. I'll strike a match.

Chapter 4: What clues does Sherlock Holmes find in Sandor Opardi's room?
Oh, Lord, here she goes again.
Come in. Come in.
I cannot see what it is. Come into the light. Besides... The Chinese actor.
I am sorry to make commotion. But as we say in my country... Those who stand from trade speak with double knowledge. Oh, you devil!
You devil! I'll kill you once! I'll kill you once! I'll kill you again!
Thank you for the confession, Signora Violetti. You can testify to it, Watson. Holmes! No, you don't, Signora. Your nails are too sharp for my liking.
I'll kill you, both of you! I'll kill you! Catch her!
She's fainted, Holmes. Fainted, eh? What an undramatic exit for a most dramatic lady.
Well, Holmes, now that you've turned Signora Violetti over to the police, that's, you tell me, what made you certain that she was the murderer?

Chapter 5: How does Holmes deduce the identity of the murderer?
Elementary, my dear fellow. Was the woman Fraulein Olinstein? No. Being a concert pianist, her nails were naturally short. The sculptress who worked in clay? Again, no. That would make it impossible for her to mold her delicate figurines. Therefore, Signora Violetti, by the process of elimination, was the only woman with long nails. Why did she strangle a Chinese actor, too?
Undoubtedly, he witnessed the first killing, the long black hairs in the closet, Well, from his cue. I presume that later he threatened Signora Violetti, and so he himself was strangled.
I still don't understand why she strangled our party in the first place.
Mr. Watson, I think you'll find that he's blackmailing her, too. Remember, he had documents incriminating everyone in the house except her. I think we may assume she killed him and then removed her own papers from the dispatch box. But I've no proof, and so, well, I have to whiten her into confessions. So that's why you disguised yourself as like Tung Fu. Yes, I borrowed the robes from his room.
He was lucky that the lights were low as I entered. Yes. And it's also fortunate that to the average European, all Chinese look alike. Amen? Ah, Proline Ulstein. We're coming in to see you in a few minutes.
I have been waiting so anxiously. Is everything all right?
Well, from your point of view, my dear young lady, yes. There's nothing more for you to worry about.
Oh, I would like to repay you here, Holmes.
I, uh, I've done very little for you, but if you really feel that you owe me something... Yeah? Well, perhaps just this once you wouldn't mind, uh, accompanying an amateur?
