DUGAN: Nix on that bull. You know what you stole.
EEL: Yes, and I suppose you know what I stole before I stole it.
DUGAN: With dips like you, I always look far ahead.
EEL: Get out! you couldn't look far enough ahead to see the ashes on your cigar. Why, if it wasn't for your stool pigeons—
DUGAN: That's enough out of you.
EEL: Oh, go chase yourself. (DUGAN smashes at EEL, who ducks around back of him.)
INSPECTOR: Dugan!!! (When Dugan locates the EEL, he goes after him again. MRS. WORTHINGTON screams.)
INSPECTOR: None of that, Dugan! Remember, he had no marks on him when you brought him in. (DUGAN crosses L. in front of EEL and looks off door L. in subdued rage.) A little more civility out of you, Bradley.
EEL: All right, Inspector. (To MRS. W.) I beg your pardon, lady.
INSPECTOR: You have been brought here as a suspect in a five thousand dollar jewelry theft which happened at the home of Mrs. Worthington last night. (EEL makes no move.) Circumstances point strongly in your direction. Your former sweetheart, Goldie Marshall, was serving as maid to Mrs. Worthington at the time of the robbery.
