"What will the demand be for?"
"I'll tell you the truth, as I happen to know it, or, rather, suspect it, from what I do know, have seen, and heard."
"I hope that you will act squarely with me, Mr. Wolf."
"Upon my life, I will, and though I cannot help you now, must even appear to be your foe, in the end I will help you and prove to be your friend."
"I hope so."
"You ask what this third demand will be?"
"Yes."
"Will you ransom Bernard Brandon?"
"Where is he?"
"A fugitive."
