Inspector Queen: You're not leveling with us, Vargo. |
Clint: (to the Queens) Down where I come from we know what to do with killers--find 'em. We don't let 'em just walk around. |
Brimmer: Well, Inspector, I'd say you have a brand new case on your hands. |
Celeste: Obviously, you've checked my alibi, Inspector.
Inspector Queen: It's part of my job, Miss Wakefield. |
Ellery: Dr. Friedland, I don't think you understand. I'm trying to solve a murder. |
Inspector Queen: Paperwork! Pretty soon you'll need a judge's permission to question a suspect. |
Brimmer: I think I can help you, Inspector.
Inspector Queen: You brought me an aspirin? |
Inspector Queen: If you're concealing evidence, Brimmer.....
Brimmer: I'm concealing nothing, Inspector. I'm merely employing methods more effective than the police. |
Vargo: True genius can never be defeated. I shall create another masterpiece. |
