4. I’m a detective from Interpol. My name is Harry¹ Carter². I’m sorry, Mrs. Temple, but I’m looking for you husband. It’s very urgent³.
5. Oh, he isn’t here! He went away. I’ll never see him again!
6. Oh, I see. Er…Where did he go?
7. But that’s what I wanted, right? I said to him: "Get out of here, Roger!” and he went. I got what I wanted, didn’t I?

13. About ten minutes age; just before you came in.
14. Do you know where he went?
15. To the airport, I think. He said something about Trinidad.

18. I must hurry now, Mrs.Temple. Thank you very much for you help.
19. Will you tell me what happened?

21. Excuse me, let me pass, please! Will you let me pass?
22. Did you see a man here a few moments ago?
23. I see a lot of man in my job. What’s he like?
24. He’s a pilot; tall with blonde hair and blue eyes.
25. Ah, you mean Mr. Temple! Isn’t he fantastic?
26. Yes, where did he go, please? It’s urgent!
27. Oh, he went to passport control.
28. Say hello to him for me!
29. Stop that man! Stop him!
30. Which man?
31. The one in the blue coat! Hurry up! Don’t let him go!
32. Now wait a moment, sir. What’s all this? Stop there, please!
33. I’m a detective. I’m here to arrest someone.
34. Very well. Then why did you stop?
35. There he is!
36. I’m arresting you, Mr. Temple.
37. What for?
38. Let’s have a look in here…for this! This is the “stuff⁴”, isn’t it?
39. Look, it isn’t mine! I didn’t know it was there!
40. Oh, no? Come on!
41. Hello, Mrs. Temple? Harry Carte here. I have some news about your husband.
42. What happened?
43. I arrested him, Mrs. Temple. He had ten kilos of drugs in his suitcase.
44. Oh, no!
45. Look Mrs. Temple, I don’t know you very well…but I’d like to help you. Er…Would you like to come to dinner with me in my apartment?
46. What? Oh, thanks. That’s nice of you. Yes, alright, sure.
47. Oh, good! Will you drive, or will you come by bus?
48. Huh? Oh, I don’t know, I can’t drive at the moment. I’ll come by bus.
49. Right. I’ll tell you how to get there.
