— Did you know that Mr. Ratchett was of Italian extraction?
— Ah... So that accounts for his hot temper.
— His real name was Cassetti. The name means nothing to you? Do you remember the Armstrong case?
— No, Sir. Oh, yes, yes. The little girl.
— Cassetti was responsible for her murder. How does that strike you?
— I have often thought, Sir, that instead of our employers requiring references from us, we should require references from them.
