Scudder
- Richard Hannay: So, what's the story?
- Scudder: [hesitantly] I am a freelance agent for the British Secret Service Bureau.
- Richard Hannay: My housekeeper told me you were an accountant.
- Scudder: I don't make a habit of telling people that I'm a spy. Last night I was supposed to meet someone from the Bureau to exchange information, but it was a double-cross. Obviously I've been betrayed. I've been on the trail of a German espionage ring and I've tracked down their headquarters to a village in Scotland.
- Richard Hannay: [sarcastically] You should contact the Weekly News. They're offering ten pounds to anyone spotting a German agent. An espionage ring could make you a very wealthy man.
- Richard Hannay: It's Mr. Scudder, isn't it? I believe you live on the third floor.
- Scudder: There are two men out there who want to kill me.
- Richard Hannay: Well if you make a habit of crashing into other people's homes, I'm not surprised.
