David Hunter goes into the office and switches on the light. He finds Meg sitting behind her desk. "I've
come to get my pen. I must have left it on the desk," he says. Meg searches about on the desk and hands David
his pen. "Shall I switch off the light?" asks David. "Ummm. What?" asks Meg. "Is anything wrong?"
asks David. "What? Oh your pen. You said something about leaving your pen here," says Meg and begins to
search the desk again. David holds up his pen. "I've got it," he says. Meg looks at him. "I'm being
blackmailed," she says. "I see," says David, calmly. Meg stares at him. "Well you don't seem too concerned
yourself," he adds. Meg tells him that Ethel Wisbey is blackmailing her and David asks why. "I can't tell you.
Even if I did you wouldn't believe me," says Meg. David looks at her. "Oh alright. But you won't believe
me," says Meg.

says to Diane. "Yes, I'll get my coat," says Diane.
"I don't believe it," says David, after Meg has told him about Philip Warner Blyth and Ethel Wisbey's attempts to blackmail
her. "I told you you wouldn't," says Meg. "I don't mean I don't believe you. But I'm not the one you
have to convince," says David. "What?" asks Meg. "I'm not married to you," says David. Meg assures David
that it was all very innocent.

to go to Mrs Warner Blyth and also tell Mr Mortimer all the details. "It's still 5000 pounds," says Ethel Wisbey.
"It's not on. I don't believe you will go through with this Miss Wisbey," Meg tells her. "It reminds me of the
old phrase. 'I didn't think the gun was loaded.' This time Mrs Mortimer, the gun is loaded," says Miss Wisbey.
P.C. Frank Tyler asks Jackie Barrett out to dinner and she accepts. Diane arrives back at the flat after Frank
Tyler has left and asks Jackie was is happening about the stolen earrings. Jackie tells her that she bought the earrings

back," says Chris Hunter. "Not even for me?" asks Simone Clavell. "No, not even for you," says Chris. "I
think you will," says Simone.
