Miss Jane Marple
- Miss Marple: Are you implying that I am unhinged?
- Det. Insp. Craddock: No. No, of course not!
- Miss Marple: Then what are you implying, pray?
- Det. Insp. Craddock: Well, just that you are temporarily not yourself.
- Miss Marple: Chief Inspector, I am *always* myself!
- Miss Marple: [to Craddock] Embezzlement is one thing - proof of triple murder is another. Softly, softly catches monkey in a mousetrap.
- [Inspector Craddock has come to release Miss Marple who was arrested as a possible murder suspect; they are both in a cell in the police station]
- Det. Insp. Craddock: [pointing to the way out from the cell] The way lies before you, Miss Marple. May I suggest you take it, collect Mr Stringer wherever he is, and carry straight on home to Milchester?
- Miss Marple: [walking out of the cell] The way lies before *you*, Chief Inspector. I suggest *you* take it. Lock yourself up for the night and do some good hard thinking.
