[music continues]

Everyone, this is a robbery. Up against the counter, please.

[male #1] 'Just stay right where you are. Don't make any sudden moves.'

'No one will get hurt.'

The vault. Bring your keys.

Hold it. You too, your keys.

[keys jingling]

Take your time. Don't be nervous.

Inside. Come on.

Open it.

You hold. You fill it.

[door opens]

Hold it! Don't move.

- Hey, what's going on here? - Just don't move.

Get over there with the others.

Throw down the bag.

Sure, o-okay.

[women screaming]

[dramatic music]

[women screaming]

Stay back! Stay back!

Get up.

Come on! Get on your feet!

Move!

Stay where you are!

[male narrator] "The FBI.."

A Quinn Martin production.

Starring Efrem Zimbalist Jr..

Also starring Philip Abbott..

William Reynolds.

With guest stars, Monte Markham..

...Arthur Franz

and special guest star, Jessica Walter.

Tonight's episode, "The Recruiter."

[instrumental music]

On January 24th

two armed men held up a bank in Lincoln, Nebraska.

One of the men was identified

from pictures taken by a bank camera

as George Shawn, a local citizen.

A warrant was obtained

to permit a search of Shawn's apartment

where agents learned that the apartment had been shared

with Brent Wilcox

a known alias for James Robert Devlin.

A search of the room uncovered a hand-drawn sketch.

This sketch was forwarded at once

to FBI headquarters in Washington for examination.

[male #2] 'The writing on the diagram found in Shawn's apartment'

'doesn't match samples of Shawn's handwriting'

'which the Omaha office furnished us.'

'Now, here's a demand note we have on file'

'of Shawn's roommate, Devlin.'

This was used by Devlin in a 1960 bank robbery case

in Pittsburgh.

And the handwriting is identical?

Yes, sir.

When was Devlin released from prison?

Two years ago.

How much money was taken in the Lincoln robbery?

Twelve thousand dollars.

Some of the serial numbers were recorded.

We've furnished them to law enforcement agencies

and banks in Nebraska and bordering states

and entered them in the NCIC.

Anyone get a description of the getaway car?

Yes, sir.

Two eyewitnesses outside the bank identified the car

as a late-model dark blue Ford or sedan.

The state patrol has set up roadblocks.

Well, they might've gotten through

before the roadblocks went up.

[Erskine] 'I wouldn't think so, Art.'

Judging from the amount of blood at the crime scene

Shawn wasn't in any condition to travel.

Now, you two better get out there right away.

[dramatic music]

That hurts.

It hurts so much.

[breathing heavily]

It's time to go, Georgie.

[breathing heavily]

[breathing heavily] I'm ready.

[groans]

[breathing heavily] Maybe we could wait a little longer.

I'm sorry, kid.

You'd never make it.

You're gonna k*ll me, aren't you?

That's not my style, Georgie..

...but I am gonna leave you.

Yeah, I'd just slow you down.

'No, that's not it. You can't travel.'

'You'd bleed to death in the car'

but you'll be alright here as long as you don't try to move.

I've patched you up as well as I can.

It wasn't deep, I got the b*llet out

but you gotta lay quiet a few days

then you'll be alright.

'You understand?'

How much money did we get anyway?

Eight thousand dollars.

[chuckles]

[coughs]

Yeah.

That's the part that really hurts.

It looked so easy. I should've known better.

It's your share. I'm sorry, kid.

It just wasn't our day.

No fault of yours.

You never did tell me

about that big caper that you had planned.

Really doesn't make any difference. Does it?

Hey, do you know what I think?

I think I better quit while I'm ahead.

Man, there's gotta be an easier way to make a living than this.

[chuckles]

You take care now.

Do you hear?

[dramatic music]

[door opens]

- Inspector. - Howland.

Good to see you again.

- Hello, Tom. - Howland.

The highway patrol found the getaway car

abandoned right here.

It's just outside of Washington, Kansas.

Any cars reported stolen around there?

'No, sir.'

And we've alerted all doctors

hospitals and pharmacies

and we're processing the car now

for fingerprints and other evidence.

Hm. Where is Shawn from originally?

Well, he was adopted when he was 12.

He was raised by a Theodore Watson.

They owned a little farm just outside of Topeka.

Shawn left Kansas six years ago when his father died.

Have agents been out to the farmhouse?

- They're checking it out now. - Alright, Howland.

Call Kansas City and tell 'em we're flying out.

Yes, sir.

[knocking on door]

Hi.

Aren't you gonna ask me in?

You look wonderful. You haven't changed a bit.

You either.

How have you been?

Just fine.

Scotch, wasn't it?

Yes, that'll be fine.

[chuckles] I could never get this open.

- I'm a terrible bartender. - A minor flaw.

Anything for the lady?

No, thank you. I'm just getting ready to go out.

Gill, I'd like to have dinner with you.

[laughs]

[chuckles] Did I say something funny?

That's beautiful.

You make no attempt to get in touch with me

for nearly two months

then suddenly, out of the blue, you open my door

and expect me to have dinner with you.

Hey, look, I know you're sore.

'No. You don't know anything about me.'

I'm just a girl who went on a skiing holiday

and fell in love with her instructor.

Nothing special about that.

I'm sure it comes with the price of the lessons.

You're wrong, Gillian.

Then why didn't you call?

You're right.

I should have, but..

Gill, I wasn't ready yet to just...let it happen.

I think that it was..

I wasn't really serious that in time I..

I was wrong.

I was wrong, Gill.

So here I am.

Oh, I wish I could believe you

that you just didn't happen to be in New York

and I'm the only number you have.

Gill, what are you afraid of?

Tell me.

I just don't want to be hurt again.

You won't be.

[knocking on door]

That's reality breaking in.

Tell it to go away.

Paul, I-I'd like you to meet a friend of mine from Aspen

James Duncan.

I'm afraid there's been a-a, a bit of a mix-up.

What's going on? I thought we were going out.

I know this is inexcusable, Paul

but please try to understand.

But I don't understand.

The lady is trying to let you down gently, friend.

Get your coat.

Now, wait a minute. You're not gonna walk..

You're not gonna walk out..

[groans]

[intense music]

[groans]

Mister, you haven't heard the last of this.

- Oh, he'll cool off. - Oh, I don't think so.

He's a nice man, but he's got a thing

about people taking advantage of him.

He's a lawyer. He's liable to go to the police.

Come on. We are going into New York City.

I know a great little restaurant there

and they only serve very beautiful ladies.

[instrumental music]

[music continues]

Is there someone in the house?

That farmer. Lives three miles down the road.

He says he saw somebody answering Devlin's description

drive out last night.

- Alone? - 'Yes, sir.'

And earlier, he also saw smoke coming out of the chimney.

I have agents covering the rear of the house too.

Alright. Tell them we're moving in.

Unit 1 to units on the back road

move to within 50 yards of the farmhouse

and hold your positions. We are going in the front.

[music continues]

- Where's Devlin? - Gone.

[groans]

Uh, there's no sign of Devlin, Lou.

Call an ambulance.

[music continues]

[instrumental music]

This is fantastic!

You're beautiful, absolutely beautiful.

We'll take it. Could you show us something else, please?

- My head's spinning. - Oh.

Ever since you got here. everything's happened

so quickly.

Moving to the city, getting ready to go to Europe.

You don't give a girl much chance to catch her breath.

It's a whole new life for both of us.

As soon as I put things together, we'll just up and go.

I'm getting the funniest feeling that man is watching us.

[indistinct chatter]

Well, maybe he thinks we're going to rob Asher Dormans.

Why? You think there'll be anything left

at the rate we're going?

I can afford it.

Because of that new job you said you had?

Yes. I'll tell you all about it later.

Which reminds me, I'm more than ten minutes late

for a very important meeting.

Here, you buy whatever else you need

go on back to the hotel. I'll call you, alright?

[instrumental music]

It's been a long time, Dev.

How have you been?

Ah, don't ask. I think I got an ulcer.

What are you up to?

I thought you were out of circulation.

I was.

What happened?

You wouldn't believe it, Neil..

...but I found someone.

Oh. Yeah, that-that girl you were with.

Yeah.

I can't believe it myself.

I only wish I'd met her years ago.

The thing is..

...I'm gonna need some money.

[chuckles] Don't we all?

How much do you figure Asher Dormans got in the till?

Well, it's not as big as it was a couple of years ago.

That's when we should've hit it.

Too many people now using credit cards..

...but still on a Saturday we could walk away with 200,000.

You don't sound too enthused, Neil.

We're all getting older, Dev.

What's gonna happen to me if something goes wrong?

You know, being a store supervisor isn't flying high

but it pays regular

and I don't take too much of the four gray walls.

Well, if you can't see it, Neil..

Okay.

How many ways is the pie gonna be split?

I figure on three beside myself

but they'll have to take a flat rate, 20 grand each.

What you pay the other guys is your business.

I want 25 off the top.

No way, Neil.

Suit yourself.

Alright.

Alright.

Have you got any blueprints, floor plans, schedules?

I know how you work.

When can I have them?

You'll have the blueprints tomorrow.

The time schedule might take a little bit longer.

Then I'll meet you tomorrow, same time.

Roger.

[instrumental music]

And anything you say can be used against you.

You have the right to an attorney if you wish.

Well, I guess I'm not gonna have much of a career

as a bank robber.

You should've thought of that before.

That bank didn't seem that tough. In fact, it seemed easy.

Is that what your partner said?

Look, no one twisted my arm.

I'm just sorry about that messenger, that's all.

Is he here?

He's off the critical list.

Well, that's good news.

Shawn, you might as well tell us where we can find Devlin.

- I don't know where he is. - You don't know?

You're the one who's gonna stand trial.

You know, it seems to me that, uh, Devlin ran out on you.

If I could travel, I'd have gone with him.

And he left me half the money, didn't he?

Did he?

Right down the middle. Four is half of eight.

Why, wasn't it eight?

Twelve thousand.

What is this, some kind of trick or something?

He suckered me.

I really don't know where he is. Devlin played it cozy.

Was he planning another job?

Yeah, I was supposed to be in on it

but he didn't say where.

Well, where were you and Devlin going after the Lincoln robbery?

Colorado. He used to be a ski instructor up in Aspen.

We were supposed to hole up there until things cooled off.

What's the name of the place he worked at?

It's, uh, Kings Lines.

- Yeah, that's the name of it. - Thank you.

[dramatic music]

[knocking on door]

- Yeah. - 'Joe Kreska.'

- Hey, Dev. - Joe.

- Where you've been hiding? - Around.

Oh..

What's up?

Are you interested in going back to work?

Well, what can it cost me to listen?

Nothing.

But it'll cost me $20,000.

Flat deal, no split?

Twenty firm. Same deal for everybody.

- How many others? - Four.

LaTorra should be here any minute

plus you, an inside man

and a lock man I've still got to find.

It's a deal, but I'd like a little front money

'cause, uh, I want a little taste.

I'm running short..

...but I can let you have a grand.

[knocking on door]

- Vince? - 'Yeah.'

- Hi. - Dev.

- Good to see you. - Good to see you.

You two know each other? Joe Kreska, Vince LaTorra.

- Yeah. How do you know Vince? - Joe.

One of the best wheelmen in the business.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

So I drive a hack. It pays the rent.

Then I've got a deal just for you.

Yeah.

Well, lay it on me.

[instrumental music]

[female #1] 'Yes, that's Jimmy Duncan.'

He used to be one of our instructors.

- When did he leave? - 'Hm, nearly two months ago.'

The manager wasn't very happy about it.

Where do you find another instructor on such short notice?

Mm, not that Jimmy was a great skier

but he was very popular, especially with the girls.

Anyone in particular?

Well, Jimmy didn't play favorites

except toward the end.

They say, "Nobody falls quite as hard as a real playboy."

I guess it's true.

Jimmy fell for a girl from Mount Vernon, New York.

- Do you remember her name? - Oh, yes.

Norberry. Gillian Norberry.

She's pretty enough, but..

...just not his type at all.

Hm.

I wonder if I could see her registration card.

Yes, of course. I'll be just a minute.

Well, it looks like some of that money from the Lincoln robbery

is beginning to show up.

The office just got word NCIC received an inquiry

late this afternoon regarding two of the bills

from New York City Police Department.

Well, that's encouraging.

Devlin's involved with a girl from New York.

Thank you.

Just a moment.

Tom, call Clay in New York

ask him to run a discreet check on her.

Tell him we'll be on the next flight out.

- May I? - Mm-hmm.

[instrumental music]

Oh, I can't remember when I've laughed so much.

That has to be the funniest show I've seen in years.

James, do you realize something?

What?

Do you realize that this is the first time

we've gone out since I moved in to the city?

Yeah, but it hasn't been easy for me either.

It's just that..

Well..

You wanted me to move here so that I could be near you

and I hardly ever see you.

I'm in this beautiful room with nothing to do.

Sometimes I feel like a checked package

waiting for you to claim me.

Hey, Gill..

'I feel like I don't know how to'

how to reach you.

It's almost as if I were a prisoner here.

Gill, nobody's putting any locks on you.

Oh, the lock isn't on me, it's on you.

Why won't you open up, let me into your life?

Hey.

Gill.

Don't make such a big thing of this.

But it is a big thing to me.

I-I'm beginning to get paranoid.

If I didn't know you better, I'd think there was another girl.

If you could think that, Gill, you don't know me at all.

Maybe I don't.

Hey, Gill, I know it's been a drag for you

but in a few more days I'll have it all put together.

You trust me. Huh?

I'm trying, James, I'm trying.

Okay.

[instrumental music]

I love you, babe.

I really do.

I'm sorry, Gill. I gotta go.

Okay?

Hey, look..

...if you need me..

...or even if you just want to talk..

...you can reach me at this number.

Okay?

And everything's gonna be fine, just fine.

I'll call you.

Bye.

[sniffling]

Hello? Paul Lyme, please.

Is Mr. Lyme in?

Gillian Norberry.

Yes, I'll wait.

Oh. Well, when do you expect him?

No. No, it's nothing important.

Would you ask him to call me, please?

At the Park Towers. 2-4-5-4-5-9-9.

Thank you.

Dev, Parsons here yet?

He'll show. Who's this?

That's the kid I've been telling you about.

Bud Browning. Really sharp.

Do you know anything about locks, kid?

That's where we start, by you puttin' me down?

Nobody's putting you down.

I got a lot riding on this job.

Yeah, sure.

You know, you'd make life easier if you get your friend

to get the makes and code numbers.

Parsons will be here any minute. We'll ask him.

What if he can't?

[chuckles]

Well, then I'm just gonna have to get a little more bread.

Hey, you talk a good game, kid.

Yeah, I play a good one too.

A c*ck kid.

It's just what I need, a c*ck kid.

[siren wailing]

[dramatic music]

Well, what's the matter?

That was Parsons.

[instrumental music]

[Devlin] 'Neil.'

Are you awake?

Oh. Hello, James.

Nice of you to come by.

On the way in I heard the nurse say it was appendix.

Yeah. How about that?

Wasn't an ulcer after all.

My appendix..

They said they got it just in time.

- Great. - Hm.

Listen, Dev, I-I feel badly about this..

...but maybe you can pull it off without me.

Back in my apartment

I've got the blueprints and the floor plans.

You'll have everything except the time schedules.

Yeah, well that, and someone to turn off the alarm

and communication systems when we go in.

Yeah.

Now, look, how soon before you're out of here

and back on the job?

The doctor says it'll be a month.

[sighs] That's dead then. I'm..

- I'm nearly broke now. - No, no.

Now listen, maybe there's somebody else.

One of the department managers

a woman by the name of Vera Beckley.

She's been stealing from the store for nearly a year.

Nice-looking woman.

I've been, uh, sitting on it

planning to move in myself, but for you..

Can she get the time schedules?

Yeah.

What about the lock makes and the code numbers?

Yeah, yeah, but just, just sweeten the pot a little

you know, something for her.

Alright.

Alright.

You'll have to give me something to go in with.

I've got a whole file on her back in the apartment.

Uh, the keys are over there, that drawer.

This one is the key

to the store's internal alarm system.

I'll look in on it, Neil.

But rest easy. I'm sure you've got full hospitalization.

Yeah, yeah.

- Take care, huh? - Hm.

Thank you.

I didn't even know she had left

until I got her check in the mail.

Sure enough, when I came up to check her rooms

'all her things were gone.'

'Whoever took them must've done it while I was out.'

She's such a sweet girl. I, I hope she's alright.

Mrs. Nelson, have you seen this man before?

No.

For a moment I thought you were gonna show me

a picture of Mr. Lyme.

Mr. Lyme?

'He's a friend of Ms. Norberry's.'

A lawyer, I think.

Oh, I should've thought of him before.

He might know where Ms. Norberry is.

Did she have many friends?

No. No. She kept mostly to herself.

Mr. Lyme was the only one I ever saw her with more than once.

Hm.

Alright, Mrs. Nelson, thanks very much.

If you should hear from her

I'd appreciate if you didn't mention we were here.

[instrumental music]

- David Molesky? - Yes.

[chuckles] Well, I thought I knew all the executives at the store.

No, you misunderstood me.

I'm not employed at Asher Dormans.

- I'm an insurance investigator. - Oh, really?

- What are you investigation? - The employee thefts.

Oh. Tsk.

I'm sorry, but if I had seen any of that

I would've certainly reported it before now.

'Unless you were doing it yourself.'

[chuckles] Did I hear that correctly?

I'm afraid you did.

Well, I, I hope you can prove that.

Do you?

"Vera Beckley, January 23rd

'"one black sealcoat.'

'"Value $1150.'

'"March 1st, one mink stole.'

'Value $485."'

There's no need to continue.

[instrumental music]

Well, you look like a reasonable sort of person.

Isn't there some way we could, uh..

...work this out?

Well..

...nobody should have a closed mind.

[chuckles]

That's why you came here instead of the store.

Well, now..

...what do you have in mind?

I want to rob Asher Dorman.

[Lyme] 'That's him, alright.'

That's the guy I had the hassle with in Gillian's apartment.

What do you want him for?

Bank robbery. Lincoln, Nebraska.

Oh, no.

You think Gillian's in any danger?

She may very well be.

Do you know where she is, Mr. Lyme?

I didn't even know she'd left her apartment

until you just mentioned it.

[sighs] After our scuffle

when I'd cooled down, I told myself

"Well, if Gillian wants to see another man

that's her business."

So I thought I'd act adult and sophisticated.

I'd no claims on her

and just forget about everything.

Now, I wish I'd gone to the police.

[sighs] If anything happened to her, uh..

Can you think of anyone she might try to contact?

No.

Wait a minute.

She called yesterday morning.

Friday morning. My secretary took the call.

You didn't talk to her?

I wanted to, but my pride was still smarting.

- Did you leave a number? - I don't know.

[Erskine] 'Would your secretary know?'

She might. Gillian could've given it to her.

Well, where can we reach your secretary?

Oh. I think she left town for the weekend.

She didn't say where she was going.

Well, there must be somebody who knows.

I could give you, uh, her mother's number.

Fine.

[telephone ringing]

- Hello? - 'Hello, James?'

- Oh, hi, babe. - Are you busy?

'Well, I'm expecting someone any minute.'

'Why, is something the matter?'

Uh, no, no. I'm just feeling a little blue, that's all.

I thought maybe you could break away

we could have lunch somewhere.

[knocking on door]

- Uh, Gill, there he is now. - Alright.

Alright, I'll let you go.

[instrumental music]

Hello, operator?

Could you tell me where your hotel is located?

Did you have any trouble getting these?

Mnm-mnm.

Who put you on to me?

- Was it Parsons? - No.

You're lying.

Alright, it was Parsons.

Well, how do I know when this is over

that, uh, Parsons will let me off the hook

when you're out of it?

That's the deal I made.

Well, suppose Parsons, uh, changes his mind

when the mood hits him?

He won't because you'll be working at Asher Dormans

after this month.

Oh? Where will I be?

Caribbean, Hawaii, Honk Kong.

Wherever your heart desires.

[chuckles]

- Is that a proposal? - Much better than a proposal.

- It's a cash offer. - Oh, I don't know.

I-I was kind of warming up to the proposal.

Have I wormed my way into your heart?

I've always been a sucker for men who wear ascots.

Well, maybe you'll outgrow it.

I hope not.

What do you want me to do?

Look here.

In the basement near the watchman's office..

You've been down there, haven't you?

Alright, you've seen a door right here.

It looks like a closet.

Inside is the master control lock

for the store's internal alarm system.

They only turn it on at night after the store is closed.

All you have to do..

...is put this key in the alarm..

...and turn it off.

And, uh, what about the silent alarm?

I've heard them talk about that.

We'll be in so fast, no one will have a chance to hit it.

Alright. I do what you say.

- For how much? - Ten thousand dollars.

Is that all you were gonna pay Parsons?

Forget Parsons.

Fifteen.

Okay. Fifteen.

You didn't come out of this too badly, did you?

I'll let you know when it's over.

[instrumental music]

[door opens]

[dramatic music]

[knock on door]

- Yeah? - 'James?'

Is your meeting over?

Well, yeah, just broke up.

Yes, I know.

I just saw one of the latecomers in the hall.

- Gillian.. - Hm.

It must be expensive for you

keeping all these hotel rooms.

[sighs] Now, wait. You've got it all wrong.

Have I?

I guess my pride is hurt.

At least I got to stay in a first-class hotel.

Just for the record, why did you look me up anyway?

Because I love you.

You seem to have an infinite capacity for love.

- Who is she? - Why? Would you believe me?

I want to, yes.

Gill..

...I'm about to pull off a very important deal tonight.

The woman you saw leaving is Vera Beckley.

She's a buyer at the department store I'm dealing with.

And instead of meeting at the store

she came all the way over here to discuss it?

Alright. I need her. She's helping us.

I'm even going to cut her in for the piece of the action.

What action? Why all the mystery?

You're holding back, James.

You're not telling me everything.

Gill, don't crowd me anymore.

If we're gonna have any kind of life together

it's got to be built on trust.

If you don't have that kind of feeling for me--

But I do. I love you. You know that.

Alright.

Then no more questions.

What am I supposed to do?

Meet me at the airport tonight at 9 o'clock.

The reservations are in my name.

Two tickets to Puerto Rico.

I hope you'll be there.

[instrumental music]

Yeah, I've got it. Alright, thank you.

Oh, Lou, we reached, uh, Lyme's secretary

Ms. Jackson, on the phone.

She remembers Gillian Norberry calling and saying

that Lyme could reach her in New York City

at the Park Towers.

Good work, Tom.

[dramatic music]

[indistinct chatter]

[music continues]

[music continues]

[dramatic music]

Freeze.

[knock on door]

- Ms. Norberry? - Yes.

I'm Inspector Erskine with the FBI.

This is Special Agent Colby. We'd like to speak to you.

Sure. Come in.

Ms. Norberry, do you know this man?

Yes. Why?

He's been charged with a bank robbery

in Lincoln, Nebraska. We have a warrant for his arrest.

I don't believe it. There must be some mistake.

Do you know where we can find him?

No.

When you last talked to him, where was he going?

I don't know.

There was something about a big business deal

he was involved in.

What kind of deal?

Something to do with a department store.

There was a woman helping him.

Do you know her name?

Vera Beckley. She's a buyer there.

Which store was it?

I'm afraid I don't know.

Well, has he, uh, been to any that you know of?

Well, he took me shopping at Asher Dormans.

But I'm, I'm sure there's an explanation for all this.

Now, i-if you don't mind I really have to go.

Alright, Ms. Norberry, thank you.

Yeah, she's all packed and ready

and, uh, she seems to be in a hurry to be someplace.

Desk clerk didn't say anything about her checking out.

We better have Clay put her under surveillance.

[grunting]

'Police have store employee, Vera Beckley, in custody.'

'Four male suspects made getaway'

'in late-model green Sedan.'

This is NY 31. Anybody got a licensee number?

- 'No, inspector.' - 10-4.

- 'NY 17 to 31.' - Go ahead.

[man on radio] 'Inspector, the Norberry woman just left her hotel'

'and is now proceeding east on 68th in a taxi cab.'

'Dispatcher says, destination, airport.'

Alright, notify the port authority police.

We'll join you in a few minutes.

[indistinct chatter]

[woman on PA] 'Flight 337 to Puerto Rico now boarding at Gate 2.'

- Alright, Dev, that's us. - There's time.

We've run out of time, Dev.

Uh, we'll see you onboard.

[intense music]

Clay, check with the ticket agent.

See if he recognizes Devlin's photograph.

Inspector Erskine, FBI.

[indistinct chatter]

Flight 337. I had almost given up on you.

- Come on-- - I want to talk to you.

There'll be time to talk on the plane. Come on.

No!

Now, I want the truth or I'm not going.

What are you talking about?

[music continues]

Inspector, one of the ticket agents

saw three men talking with Devlin.

They boarded the plane just before we got here.

Yeah, they're on the plane.

[instrumental music]

If I hadn't waited for you, we might have made it.

But then it wouldn't have meant much.

Well, maybe it's better this way.

Inspector.

I'm sorry. I was wrong about him.

So wrong.

I didn't even know him.

Well, at least you found out in time.
