Hercule Poirot : You do know who I am?
Nick Buckley : No. I don't.
Hercule Poirot : I forget; you are but a child. Alors, my friend here, Captain Hastings, he will tell it to you.
Captain Hastings : Well, um, Monsieur Poirot is a detective.
Nick Buckley : Oh.
Captain Hastings : [Poirot just looks at Hastings] Um, uh, a great detective.
Hercule Poirot : My friend, is that all you can find to say? Mais dis donc, say then to Mademoiselle that I am the detective unique, unsurpassed, the greatest that ever lived.
Captain Hastings : Well, doesn't seem much point now; you've told her yourself.
Hercule Poirot : Ah yes, but it is more agreeable to preserve the modesty.
