The people you wished to speak to are here. COUNTESS: Good, Hermann. Show them in. HERMANN: Yes, my lady. DOCTOR: I say, what a wonderful butler. He's so violent. Hello, I'm called the Doctor.

COUNTESS: The only reason you were brought here was to explain exactly why you stole my bracelet. DOCTOR: Ah, well, it's my job, you see. I'm a thief. And this is Romana, she's my accomplice. And this is Duggan. He's the detective who's been kind enough to catch me. That's his job. You see, our two lines of work dovetail beautifully. COUNTESS: Very interesting. DOCTOR: Yes. COUNTESS: I was rather under the impression that Mister Duggan was following me. DOCTOR: Ah. Well, you're a beautiful woman, probably, and Duggan was trying to summon up
