No, of course not.
But your friend, Mr. Elliott, called on me.
He told you?
Mm-hmm, everything.
Now, look, Mrs. Phillips.
I guess maybe I'm a sentimental sort of a fella, but I believe anybody who's gone straight for 35 years is entitled to a break.
Why, there's a story in the papers almost every week about some governor pardoning a man who gives himself up after years of going straight.
Oh, providing he hadn't been convicted of a major crime.
Of course, he doesn't know it.
Well, he won't.
Now, I think I have a plan that'll work.
We have two things to do.
Get back the pearls and the ruby and prevent Tom Elliott from talking.
The first is easy.
The second, well, we've got a slim chance.
Is there anything you want me to do?
Yes, definitely.
In half an hour, I want you to call Inspector Faraday and tell him that you know a man who escaped from jail 35 years ago.
Now, please trust me, Mrs. Phillips.
It's the only way I know that we can stop Elliot.
