:04:00
She's no friend of mine.
It's you I'm concerned about.
:04:03
And your wife,
who is a client and a dear friend.
:04:06
She wouldn't like the trouble
you're making for yourself.
:04:09
You don't have to worry about me,
I'm in no trouble.
:04:12
Not yet. This could be the biggest
publicity mess any store got into.
:04:16
This woman you're badgering
is Mrs William Sutton,
:04:19
wife of the distinguished
psychoanalyst.
:04:21
Treating her like a thief will bring
discredit on you and your store.
:04:26
- See if Mrs Sutton has an account.
- I'm sure she has.
:04:30
Your job as manager is to protect
your clients and store from scandal.
:04:34
I don't need advice about my job.
:04:37
Wait till you see your name
splashed across the front pages
:04:40
as the man who hounded a sick woman
into a nervous breakdown.
:04:44
Oh, she's sick now(?)
:04:45
You know she is.
You've had experience.
:04:48
A woman that wealthy isn't a thief.
:04:51
- The pin was in her purse!
- The thief didn't put it there.
:04:54
You mean she's a kleptomaniac?
:04:56
Dr and Mrs Sutton have a had
an account with us for five years.
:05:00
I see.
:05:02
Yes, I see.
:05:03
Mrs Sutton is wealthy enough
to buy a dozen such pins.
:05:07
- Now look, I don't want any trouble.
- Exactly what I thought.
:05:10
However, we'll have to make
a record of this and keep it on file,
:05:14
even if we don't report it.
:05:16
Thank you, Mr Simms. Why not add the
cost of the pin to Mrs Sutton's bill?
:05:20
It will solve the immediate problem
to everybody's advantage.
:05:23
It's now legally yours, Mrs Sutton.
:05:25
You've bought it, paid for it
and are free to wear it.
:05:29
Without agitating the police.
:05:59
Is there someone with my husband?
