• Mr. Hofstedder : [to Patty, after she entered his jewelry store & just before her call to resume the FBI's following DC that rescued Margaret Miller later that evening]  Do I look like Eliot Ness?

  Supervisor, Mr. Newton : I'm speaking for Mister Kelso, at 626 double-o 2 5.

  [626-0025] 

  Supervisor, Mr. Newton : Did you make a call to this number, a few moments ago?

  Mr. Hofstedder : [whispering to Patti, it's the FBI]  Yes. Yes, that was us. She sold it, she's from Mexico. I'm Mr. Hofstedder. The wristband, my neice sold it, she's from Mexico.

  [after the phone call ends] 

  Mr. Hofstedder : I wonder what they meant, when they said they wouldn't forget me.

  [then he covers his mouth, as if in fear]
