Policeman : Did she tell you who did it?
Det. Frank Webber : Yes.
Policeman : You want to look out. She'll be losing your job, my boy. I say, I suppose we should soon have lady detectives up at the Yard, eh? And I should be all right out the door, won't I?

Mr. White : Hello, Frank. I say, have you heard about our murder?
Det. Frank Webber : Yes. They put me on it.

Mrs. White : If they do, that'll mean a promotion, won't it?
Gossiping Neighbour : Do you reckon you'll get 'em soon?
Det. Frank Webber : Well, I-I don't know.
