I said: “Do you mean that?”
“Yeah, I’m in on it, and you can’t keep me out.”
I was glad to have Ackie with me. He was an all-right guy and a tough egg to have around when trouble starts.
“We gotta get this dame outta here first. We gotta do that quick. That’ll spoil any frame-up they’re hoping to slap on you.”

Ackie scratched his head. “We’ll take her out in my car and drop her somewhere.”
“It would be better to take her round to her own apartment and leave her there. In her profession she might’ve been knocked off by anyone.”
Ackie nodded. “We’ll do that.”
“We can’t take her out like that. We’ll have to get her dressed.”
“Why the hell have they undressed her… anyway?”
