Good evening

00:00:25.006 --> 00:00:28.011

Not what I expected A little taller

00:00:29.023 --> 00:00:31.049

A little more polished than the others

00:00:32.032 --> 00:00:35.032

Oh I'm so glad you're pleased Mr Townsend

00:00:35.041 --> 00:00:38.033

But I'm afraid just as obvious

00:00:39.033 --> 00:00:42.025

What the devil is all this about Why was I brought here

00:00:44.046 --> 00:00:46.096

Games Must we

00:00:48.021 --> 00:00:50.042

Not that I mind a case of abduction

00:00:50.005 --> 00:00:52.076

but I have tickets for the theater this evening

00:00:52.084 --> 00:00:57.051

To a show I was looking forward to And I get unreasonable about things like that

00:00:57.006 --> 00:01:01.006

With such expert play acting you make this very room a theater

00:01:02.077 --> 00:01:06.023

Oh Leonard have you met our distinguished guest

00:01:07.073 --> 00:01:09.061

He's a well tailored one isn't he

00:01:09.069 --> 00:01:13.069

My secretary is a great admirer of your methods Mr Kaplan

00:01:13.078 --> 00:01:17.016

Elusiveness however misguided Wait a minute Wait wait

00:01:18.001 --> 00:01:21.998

Did you call me Kaplan I know you're a man of many names

00:01:21.016 --> 00:01:23.095

but I'm perfectly willing to accept your current choice

00:01:24.006 --> 00:01:25.001

Current choice

00:01:25.037 --> 00:01:28.075

My name is Thornhill Roger Thornhill It's never been anything else

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:02.377

مساء الخير

00:00:25.483 --> 00:00:27.902

ليس كما توقعت أطول قليلا

00:00:28.987 --> 00:00:31.489

تبدو أفضل من الآخرين

00:00:32.449 --> 00:00:35.326

أنا سعيد جدا بأنك مسرور سيد تاونسيند

00:00:35.368 --> 00:00:37.787

لكن أخشى كما هو واضح

00:00:39.289 --> 00:00:42.167

عما يدور كل هذا لماذا أحضرتونى إلى هنا

00:00:44.335 --> 00:00:46.337

العاب أليس كذلك

00:00:48.131 --> 00:00:52.635

ليس هذا ما أمانع الإختطاف لكن لدى تذاكر للمسرح الليلة

00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.554

لعرض أتطلع إلية

00:00:54.596 --> 00:00:57.999

أصبح غير محتمل حول أشياء كهذه

00:00:57.557 --> 00:01:01.311

مع هذا التمثيل الجيد فأنك تجعل هذة الغرفة الصغيرة مسرح

00:01:02.645 --> 00:01:05.857

ليونارد هل قابلت ضيفنا المنتظر

00:01:07.776 --> 00:01:09.611

انه مدرب بشكل جيد أليس كذلك

00:01:10.006 --> 00:01:13.999

مساعدتى معجبة جدا بطرقك سيد كابلن

00:01:13.999 --> 00:01:15.575

المراوغة مع انها لم تنجح

00:01:15.575 --> 00:01:17.998

إنتظر لحظة

00:01:17.827 --> 00:01:19.245

هل دعوتنى كابلن

00:01:19.999 --> 00:01:23.708

أعلم انك رجل متعدد الأسماء ولكن سأقبل أختيارك الحالى

00:01:23.833 --> 00:01:25.994

أختيارى الحالى

00:01:25.251 --> 00:01:28.797

أسمى روجر ثورنيل لم يكن شيئا آخر من قبل

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.836

Pas du tout ce que j'attendais Plus grand

00:00:04.587 --> 00:00:06.547

et plus raffiné que les autres

00:00:08.048 --> 00:00:10.718

Ravi que vous soyez content M Townsend

00:00:10.885 --> 00:00:13.929

Mais pas plus malin que les autres

00:00:14.805 --> 00:00:17.474

De quoi s'agit il Pourquoi m'a t on amené ici

00:00:19.852 --> 00:00:22.188

Faut il perdre du temps

00:00:23.689 --> 00:00:27.985

Être enlevé m'indiffère mais je dois aller au théâtre

00:00:28.319 --> 00:00:29.695

J'y tiens beaucoup

00:00:30.196 --> 00:00:32.074

Ce genre de contretemps m'exaspère

00:00:33.115 --> 00:00:36.827

Votre talent d'acteur fait de cette pièce un théâtre

00:00:38.245 --> 00:00:41.457

Leonard Je te présente notre invité

00:00:43.375 --> 00:00:45.997

Celui ci est bien habillé

00:00:45.669 --> 00:00:49.215

Mon secrétaire admire vos méthodes M Kaplan

00:00:49.381 --> 00:00:50.966

Vous êtes insaisissable

00:00:51.003 --> 00:00:54.072

Un instant Vous m'avez appelé Kaplan

00:00:54.929 --> 00:00:59.225

Vos identités sont nombreuses J'accepte celle dont vous vous servez

00:00:59.433 --> 00:01:00.809

Celle dont je me sers

00:01:00.851 --> 00:01:04.001

Mon nom est Roger Thornhill Je n'en ai jamais eu d'autre

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:02.041

Guten Abend

00:00:25.524 --> 00:00:28.146

Nicht was ich erwartete Ein wenig größer

00:00:29.999 --> 00:00:31.519

ein wenig feiner als die anderen

00:00:32.489 --> 00:00:35.325

Ich bin froh dass Sie zufrieden sind Herr Townsend

00:00:35.409 --> 00:00:37.817

Das ist fürchte ich offensichtlich

00:00:39.033 --> 00:00:42.663

Was zum Teufel soll das alles Warum brachte man mich her

00:00:44.376 --> 00:00:46.369

Spielchen Muss das sein

00:00:48.172 --> 00:00:52.633

Hätte nichts gegen eine Entführung aber ich habe Theaterkarten für heute Abend

00:00:52.718 --> 00:00:54.545

Ein Stück auf das ich mich freute

00:00:54.637 --> 00:00:57.128

Wegen so etwas werde ich unvernünftig

00:00:57.556 --> 00:01:01.471

Solche geschickte Schauspielerei macht aus diesem Zimmer ein Theater

00:01:02.686 --> 00:01:05.999

Leonard haben Sie unseren vornehmen Gast kennen gelernt

00:01:07.816 --> 00:01:09.643

Ein piekfeiner Typ was

00:01:10.003 --> 00:01:13.354

Mein Sekretär bewundert Ihre Methoden Herr Kaplan

00:01:13.001 --> 00:01:15.608

Flüchtigkeit wie dumm auch immer

00:01:15.699 --> 00:01:17.011

Moment mal

00:01:17.999 --> 00:01:19.279

Nannten Sie mich Kaplan

00:01:19.037 --> 00:01:23.747

Ich weiß Sie tragen viele Namen ich akzeptiere aber Ihre jetzige Wahl

00:01:23.874 --> 00:01:25.119

Jetzige Wahl

00:01:25.251 --> 00:01:28.833

Mein Name ist Roger Thornhill Ich hatte nie einen anderen

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:02.126

Добрый вечер

00:00:25.107 --> 00:00:28.001

То что я ожидал Немного выше

00:00:29.111 --> 00:00:31.321

немного больше лоска чем у других

00:00:32.322 --> 00:00:35.367

Так рад что вы довольны мистер Таунзенд

00:00:35.409 --> 00:00:37.578

Боюсь это очевидно

00:00:39.496 --> 00:00:41.079

Что происходит Почему меня привезли сюда

00:00:44.668 --> 00:00:45.961

Игры А нужны они нам

00:00:47.963 --> 00:00:52.217

Я не против небольших похищений но у меня сегодня билеты в театр

00:00:53.998 --> 00:00:54.261

на спектакль которого я с нетерпением ждал

00:00:54.303 --> 00:00:57.264

Из за таких вещей я могу стать неблагоразумным

00:00:57.347 --> 00:01:01.435

С такой мастерской игрой вы можете устроить театр в этой комнате

00:01:02.561 --> 00:01:05.999

А Ленард ты знаком с нашим высоким гостем

00:01:07.732 --> 00:01:09.776

Одет с иголочки не так ли

00:01:09.086 --> 00:01:13.996

Мой секретарь поклонник ваших методов мистер Кэплен

00:01:13.947 --> 00:01:15.157

Неуловимость хоть и непродуманная

00:01:15.991 --> 00:01:17.117

Подождите

00:01:18.993 --> 00:01:19.202

вы меня назвали Кэпленом

00:01:19.244 --> 00:01:23.456

Я знаю что у вас много имен но я принимаю ваш нынешний выбор

00:01:23.498 --> 00:01:25.375

Нынешний выбор

00:01:25.417 --> 00:01:28.628

Меня зовут Торнхилл Роджер Торнхилл Другого имени у меня не было

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:02.411

Buenas tardes

00:00:25.524 --> 00:00:28.001

No como esperaba Es un poco más alto

00:00:29.001 --> 00:00:31.518

y un poco más distinguido que los demás

00:00:32.489 --> 00:00:35.324

Me alegra ser de su agrado Sr Townsend

00:00:35.408 --> 00:00:37.816

Pero me temo que es igual de obvio

00:00:39.329 --> 00:00:42.614

Qué demonios es todo esto Para qué me han traído aquí

00:00:44.376 --> 00:00:46.368

Jueguecitos Es necesario

00:00:48.171 --> 00:00:52.632

No está mal un rapto de vez en cuando pero es que tengo entradas para el teatro

00:00:52.717 --> 00:00:54.544

Es una obra que estaba deseando ver

00:00:54.636 --> 00:00:57.127

Estas cosas me sacan de quicio

00:00:57.555 --> 00:01:01.469

Usted con su gran actuación convierte esta habitación en un teatro

00:01:02.685 --> 00:01:05.001

Leonard conoce usted a nuestro distinguido huésped

00:01:07.815 --> 00:01:09.642

Viste bien eh

00:01:10.993 --> 00:01:13.602

Mi secretario es un gran admirador de sus métodos Sr Kaplan

00:01:13.779 --> 00:01:15.999

Las evasivas aunque equivocadas

00:01:15.999 --> 00:01:17.999

Un momento

00:01:17.867 --> 00:01:19.277

Me ha llamado Kaplan

00:01:19.999 --> 00:01:23.745

Ya sé que tiene muchos nombres pero aceptaré el que ha elegido ahora

00:01:23.873 --> 00:01:25.001

El que he elegido

00:01:25.249 --> 00:01:28.999

Yo me llamo Roger Thornhill Y siempre me he llamado así
