Quotes 

• Ellery Queen : Have you got it? If you've been watching very closely, you may have seen something I missed until just now. Who killed Alec Nivin? Was it Sonia Dubrinskoff, her husband Alexei, Fourchet the photographer, that antique dealer Easterbrook, or somebody else? Like Barney Groves, or that character from the NKVD? No, it was not Jenny, but I'll give you a clue. Somebody's alibi is all wet.

• Ellery Queen : Jenny, I've been waiting at Alexander's for about an hour. Now, didn't we have a lunch date?

  Jenny O'Brien : Oh, yes! But that was yesterday. And *I* waited an hour.

  Ellery Queen : Well, yesterday...

  [realizes she's right] 

  Ellery Queen : ... was Tuesday.

  Jenny O'Brien : And today is Wednesday, and tomorrow's Thursday, and anyway, I've already eaten.
