5

When Keaton has a faulty carburetor, James Kelling picks up Keaton, who is nurturing a sparrow back to health. James takes Keaton to the Arthur Malthus country estate, a premiere accounting firm which is located on a ridge overlooking Blackdown. Fellow board members Eugene Hart, Harold Smith, Pat Campbell and Oscar Hammer are introduced. While waiting for Frank Miller, who is engaged to Eugene's daughter Janet Hart, Keaton is reluctant to find out that his car will not be repaired until the next day, meaning that he will spend the night with the board members. When Frank and Janet finally arrive, the board members have a toast celebrating Frank as the newest and youngest board member. It is revealed that James offered a proposal ten years ago to set up a holding company in Brunei, which would be tax exempt from Malaysia, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom. When Keaton brings up the suspicious deaths of three former board members, he mentions that they were poisoned by a plant called monkshood. After Russian tea is served, Keaton reveals his true motive of investigating the deaths and prevents everyone from drinking their Russian tea. He suspects James as the culprit, seeing as the three former board members were poisoned before their promotions. James drinks Frank's Russian tea, and he recalls that he poisoned his own brother during childhood. In order to avoid being arrested, James runs out the window and falls to his death into the ridge below. (Source: Wikipedia)
