• Sgt. O'Hare : Mrs Carstairs, the Lieutenant here is a great admirer of your books.

  Dinah Carstairs : Oh really, which one did you like best Lieutenant?

  Lt. Bill Smith : [discomfited]  Er...... ..latest one, Mrs Carstairs. I thought it was excellent.

  Dinah Carstairs : Oh, so you liked the Maltese Falcon?

  Lt. Bill Smith : Yes, yes, that's the one.

  Dinah Carstairs : Lieutenant, that was written by Dashiell Hammet, about twelve years ago. I don't think you've ever read any of my books.

  Lt. Bill Smith : [sheepish]  I'm afraid you're right.

  Sgt. O'Hare : Not being a married man, Mrs Carstairs, the Lieutenant ain't a very convincing liar!
