Spade

[The falcon has turned out to be a fake.] [to Brigid]

All right, you've had your little joke, now tell us about it.

Brigid

Cairo

[to Gutman]

You. It's you who bungled it. You and your stupid attempt to buy it! Kemidov found out how valuable it was. No wonder we had such an easy time stealing it! You, you imbecile! You bloated idiot! You stupid fathead, you! [sobbing]
