Agatha Christie's Marple2004
[In Miss Marple's home, Mrs. Protheroe is attempting unsuccessfully to convince Inspector Slack that she killed her husband, when the phone rings, and Slack answers it]
DI Slack:
St. Mary Mead, two - yes, speaking. Is that definite? Right. [hangs up] I don't like my time wasted, Mrs. Protheroe. The bullet that killed your husband was fired from Mr. Redding's gun.
Anne Protheroe:
But... he did it for me!
DI Slack:
He didn't do it for anyone! I released him half an hour ago. Just happened to be carrying his gun, which I don't believe. And more important, [to Miss Marple] and something you didn't think of: if the Colonel was shot at a quarter to seven, why did he stop the note like that at 6:20?
Miss Jane Marple:
[feigning surprise] Oh, yes.
