Agatha Christie's Poirot1989

[last lines]

Hercule Poirot:
Miss Lemon, in addition to solving this case that has been most difficult, Hastings and I, we have brought you back a little gift from the very tomb of King Men-Her-Ra.

Miss Lemon:
From the tomb?

Hercule Poirot:
Oui. [pulls aside curtain to show cat statuette] Voila. It is the very likeness of the favourite cat of King Men-Her-Ra. Buried with him in his tomb to keep him company on his long journey.

Miss Lemon:
Oh, he's beautiful.

Hercule Poirot:
Go to bed this evening with him in your hand, and Catherine the Great will visit you during the night.

Miss Lemon:
Oh, Mr Poirot, thank you!

[Miss Lemon leaves with the statuette]

Captain Hastings:
I don't know how you can tell her such *guff*, Poirot.

Hercule Poirot:
No no no no no, Hastings, it is not a guff. It is as I said at the beginning of this case to Lady Willard: the power of superstition, it is a power that is very great indeed.
