A scene from The Big Sleep 1946
Vivian

You're the one who's shaking now.

Marlowe

I'm scared, angel. I'm sore too. Mars has been ahead of me all the way, way ahead. But I've got the jump on him this time, or we're cooked.

Philip Marlowe My name's Marlowe. General Sternwood wanted to see me. Philip Marlowe Why didn't you go to the police?...Because you were afraid they might turn up something that I couldn't sit on. Then where would the Sternwoods be. Isn't that right? Philip Marlowe Oh, and by the way, Carol, you shot the wrong guy. Brody didn't kill Geiger.
