    Patchett's running whores cut to look like movie stars.

    Judging by his address, probably something bigger on the side.

    He doesn't want any attention.

    That's right. Our motives are selfish, so we're cooperating.

    So cooperate, Miss Bracken. Why was Susan Lefferts at the Nite Owl?

    I don't know. I never heard of the Nite Owl till today.

    - How did she meet Patchett? - Pierce meets people.

    Sue came on a bus with dreams of Hollywood and this is how they turned out.

    Thanks to Pierce, we still get to act a little.

    Tell me about Pierce.

    He's waiting for you to mention money.

    - You want some advice, Miss Bracken? - It's Lynn.
