• Johnny Lockridge : How come nobody ever gets snatched in your books?

  Ellery Queen : You've read them?

  Johnny Lockridge : One or two. They're not so hot.

• Ellery Queen : How do you do?

  Mrs. Letitia Allingham : I do exceedingly well, much to my son-in-law's relief, Mr. Queen.

• Ellery Queen : I don't think anything. I just got out of bed.

• Ellery Queen : You make a terrific Dormouse, Mrs. Lockridge.

  Laura Lockridge : Thank you. I don't make a bad doormat, either, Mr. Queen.

You got the answer? Let's find out.

• Emmy Reinhart : Where are you going?

  Ellery Queen : Outside to look around.

  Emmy Reinhart : I can see you're going outside to look around. Wear your rubbers!
