Lilian Gilbert : Businessmen.
Paul Martin : Well, what's the difference?
Lilian Gilbert : What's the difference?
Paul Martin : Well, I'll tell you what the difference is. The business crook gets away with it every time. The ordinary crook never does... like that poor devil I saw trying to escape in the tube today.
