Babette La Verne : Show me one thing. Just one thing in this room that you've come by honestly.
Dandy Forsdyke : [He looks and looks and, after some difficulty, takes a frame from the mantle which has a photograph of Babette] Well, um, Well, there must be something. What about this, eh?
[And then he explains]
Dandy Forsdyke : The picture, I mean. Not - not the frame.
Babette La Verne : [Tearfully] Even the camera you took it with was stolen.

Dandy Forsdyke : I won 150 quid, actually. Born lucky. That's me.
