  • [Miss Halstead takes Campbell and Harvey to the girls' cloakroom where there are rows of pegs, each with a canvas bag hanging from it]
  • Sergeant Harvey: Shoebags!
  • Detective Inspector Campbell: You take the left row and I'll take the right row.
  • Sergeant Harvey: [sings] "And I'll be in Scotland before..."
  • [Campbell, a Scot, gives Harvey a withering look for this facetious remark]
  • Detective Inspector Campbell: [D I Campbell comes across a stuffed white rabbit sticking out of one of the bags and murmurs] Harvey
  • [obviously thinking of James Stewart's white rabbit in the film Harvey which came out a couple of years before]
  • Sergeant Harvey: Sir?
  • [replies Sgt Harvey, thinking he is being addressed; at which D I Campbell coughs and hurriedly turns to continue his search]
  • Miss Shepherd: But why should she want to protect me?
  • Detective Inspector Campbell: Miss Shepherd - I am only a mere man. I don't pretend to understand the tortuous workings of a young woman's mind.
  • Miss Shepherd: I'm sure it was someone from the outside inspector - the staff are all very nice people.
  • Detective Inspector Campbell: Women often are - until they're found out.
  • Detective Inspector Campbell: I've a wee present for you. See that you don't hang it on the wrong peg this time.
  • Miss Shepherd: Thank you, Inspector, that's very sweet of you.
  • Detective Inspector Campbell: You know, you've got a clever head. More like a man than a woman.
