Nine Degrees Of Ratchet Connections…
So we are just about there. We stop just as a pissed off Poirot is about to wrap up the case. And tell us everyone done did it.
So he talks to the Count And Countess. Aka the haters of paparazzi. The Countess? Has the drug used to drug Ratchet. And a ton of psychological trauma.
Why? She’s in actuality related to the Armstrongs. Sister of the dead wife. Ugh. Everyone knows someone who knows the Ratchet victims it seems.
The Green Goblin? He’s actually a Pinkerton Detective who used to be a street cop… Which means he was part of the whole kidnapping investigation as a responding cop.
Oh. I messed up. Poirot’s love was named Catherine. Again is there any past movies (or the TV Series made by Granada aka the Canadian company that made Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes) that features her character?
Morning arrives and at last the rescue team is ready to put the Express back on its tracks. And Poirot is ready to reveal the murderer… As the Governess, who once worked for the Armstrongs.
Only he gets shot by the doctor, who is in possession of the Green Goblin’s gun… Yes I forgot his name. Sorry. My head stops functioning at sundown… It might be solar powered.
He tells the Governess to leave. Turns out Doc was associated with Mr. Armstrong. He did this for himself and the Governess who he loves…. Somehow the putting of the train engine back on its tracks leads to a fight for the gun.
Poirot makes it through, and the Doctor is subdued. But by now Poirot finally realized just how many people killed Ratchet. This has stopped being a simple murder. It’s now a lynch mob execution. Not that the man didn’t deserve death. He did.
And so Plot Of tells the train staff and rescue team to stand by. Before the train can be reloaded and depart? He must now reveal the one truth be has discovered after all this time. It’s time to end this mystery.
So all the strings of the case are tied up, and a resolution is finally reached tomorrow. You probably already know how it goes, but Poirot is one angry Belgium person, and he’s going to solve this because it’s been a notch of a case.
We wrap up the movie, then return to my Case Closed Movie bootleg discs for our next Case Closed Movie review. It should be Movie #2… But we shall see. Stay tuned.
