Chief Inspector Charles Parker : [about Harriet] I don't give much for her chances.
Lord Peter Wimsey : Where there's life, there's hope!

Chief Inspector Charles Parker : [writing a note] "Boyes - query arsenic." Anything else?
Lord Peter Wimsey : Yes. Find out if Boyes visited any pub in the neighbourhood of Doughty Street between 9:50 and 10:10 on the night of January 20th, if he met anybody, and what he took to drink.
Chief Inspector Charles Parker : [keeps writing] "Boyes - query pub."
Lord Peter Wimsey : And thirdly, find out if any bottle or paper that might have contained arsenic was picked up in that district.
Chief Inspector Charles Parker : Oh, is that all? Well, perhaps you'd also like me to trace the bus ticket dropped by Mrs. Brown outside Selfridge's in the last Christmas rush?
