- Quiche Lorraine, you'll enjoy this.
- I've heard of it.

:28:05
- It looks delicious.
- Yes.

:28:10
It's wonderful.
The pastry is as light as air.

:28:13
Germaine has sensitive hands,
an exceedingly light touch.

:28:17
I can tell.
:28:19
She strangled a German general once,
without a sound.

:28:28
Extraordinary woman.
:28:31
I take it you were
a sort of modern Robin Hood.

:28:35
You gave away most of the proceeds
of your crime.

:28:38
Kept everything myself. Let's face it,
I was an out-and-out thief.

:28:44
- Like you.
- I say, steady on.

:28:47
Wait. Did you ever take an ashtray
from a hotel, or a towel?

:28:51
Souvenirs, they expect that.
:28:53
You're given an expense allowance
for your meals, right?

:28:58
This meal is free. Are you going to
deduct it from your expense account?

:29:03
- No, it would be stupid. You agree?
- Yes.

:29:07
You're a thief.
Only an amateur, of course.

:29:10
But it will help you sympathise
with us professionals.

:29:14
- I don't understand.
- Look at it this way.

:29:16
- You're sorry you took the ashtray?
- Right now, yes.

:29:20
You'll be sorry you didn't deduct
this lunch from your account.

:29:24
I can't deduct every little item.
I couldn't spare the time!

:29:28
Some day, you'll wish you had.
:29:31
If an ashtray is missing,
they don't come for you.

:29:34
Let a diamond bracelet disappear
and they shout, "Robie, The Cat!"

:29:39
You don't have to spend every day
proving your honesty. I do.

:29:44
Let's get down to business. The list.
:29:51
- Is something bothering you?
- I told the police.

:29:58
- I didn't expect them to like it.
- They thought it a splendid idea.
