As Miss Marple sat basking in the Caribbean sunshine she felt mildly discontented with life. True, the warmth eased her rheumatism, but here in paradise nothing ever happened.
Eventually, her interest was aroused by an old soldier's yarn about a strange coincidence. Infuriatingly, just as he was about to show her an astonishing photograph, the Major's attention wandered. He never did finish the story.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Mr. Rafiel: I had to think quite a bit before mentioning this to you.
Inspector Weston: Why is that, Mr. Rafiel?
Mr. Rafiel: It wasn't my idea and the person who had it - the idea, I mean - is a little old lady who knits and wears lace. She also has a mind like a bacon slicer.
Inspector Weston: Why didn't she come to me herself?
Mr. Rafiel: She didn't think you'd take her seriously.
Inspector Weston: I might have done.
Mr. Rafiel: I doubt it - a very good disguise - it even had me fooled for a a minute!
Inspector Weston: Better have her her name for the record.
Mr. Rafiel: Miss Marple.
Inspector Weston: (incredulous) What?
Mr. Rafiel: Miss Marple.
Inspector Weston: You wouldn't happen to know if this lady comes from a village in England called St. Mary Mead?
Mr. Rafiel: Yeah - yeah, that rings a bell - I think that's what she said - something like that anyway. 'Ow do you know that?
Inspector Weston: (laughing) Magnificent - I've heard her called the best personality analyst in the world, a ruthless forensic brain - but a mind like a bacon slicer will do very well.
Mr. Rafiel: Move over will you - what's all this about?
Inspector Weston: When I was a young rookie at Hendon Police College we were lectured by an old bird called Sir Henry Clithering, who was once head of CID at the Met. He was always quoting Miss Marple.
Mr. Rafiel: Why?
Inspector Weston: She's solved half a dozen cases you know! Real brain benders.
Mr. Rafiel: Well, well, well - the saucy old mare! | Mr. Rafiel: What's going on?
Miss Marple: Nemesis is on the march - the goddess of Retribution - it is nine night, after all.
Mr. Rafiel: (laughing) You think you're Nemesis, do you!!?
Miss Marple: Well, with your help I could be her instrument - I've been very, very foolish, Mr. Rafiel - the whole thing is so absurdly simple. Well there's no time to lose - who knows when the police will get here. |
