- [Man] There are many private detectives in London, but to my knowledge only one is a woman.
A young, unmarried woman.
- Who put you in charge?
- Someone has to be.
- It began as a generic case, but then something extraordinary happened.
It seems your serialized adventure has become a murder investigation, and with it promotion to the front page.
- These are serious people.
They won't want you sniffing around in their business.
- Luckily, I have a friend who is a detective inspector at Scotland Yard.
He respects my insight and my tenacity.
- She's hiding something from me.
- He is hiding something from me.
- So what's your next move?
- I hardly know where to begin.
I feel like a child in a sweet shop.
Do something unexpected.
- Yes.
- Life can't all be about work, you know.
- It's not a crime to enjoy oneself.
- The more you cooperate, the easier this will be.
- [Man] Help!
Help!
- I am unsure of the professional relationship between yourself and the lady.
- Surely we're good enough friends now.
- How do I know you're not some deranged lunatic?
- You don't.
There's been a terrible mistake.
- I see.
- Now, please put your hands together as we welcome our headline act, the incredible, the mysterious... - Eliza Scarlet.
