Tonight, the case of strange music.
At the moment, Philo Vance and his friend, Lane Randall, are driving back to town after a dinner in the country.
And Vance says...
Not a
care in the world.
What,
Vance? Nothing.
I just said it's a beautiful night.
I've had a good dinner.
Curry will have a cold bottle waiting.
I haven't a care in the world.
Darling, how stuffy.
A cold bottle indeed.
Where did you pick up that expression? Oh, in the book, if you must
know.
Certain types of men invariably take their fair ladies back to their apartments for cold bottles and birds.
Something like that.
Just what types of men, may I ask?
Amorous ones.
Oh.
Well, what's the matter? Don't you think I care, Lane? Really care?
About your stomach, the way you sound.
Oh, Vance, look!
Where?
There, it's a carnival.
