Your name is Smith, and there are so many Smiths in this town, the Vincent family will never notice it.
Steady yourself, Miss Smith.
There's nothing to this.
Faraday, I'm ashamed of you.
I never thought you, an alleged officer of the law, would compliment a murderess.
A what?
Maybe you think murder is funny, Miss Smith, but I don't.
You didn't just kill John Sully, you murdered him.
And there's a big difference.
Yeah, Blackie, how do you answer that?
Very simply, Faraday.
John Sully used to chauffeur for Charlie Kingston.
So what?
So a few days ago, he told Kingston he was going to see his wife.
They'd been separated for ten years, but she'd suddenly written that she wanted to see him.
And what kind of a story is this?
A lonely heart's melodrama?
It's the story of a very clever plan for murder, Faraday.
When Sully went to see his wife, she gave him a string of very expensive pearls, saying he could sell them.
Then, as soon as his back was turned, she shot him.
