Sir Horace Blatt:
A couple of months back, I met a certain lady in New York. She told me she was so madly in love with me that she'd leave the show she was in. She was an actress, you know, and come back to England with me on the Queen Mary and marry me. So I bought her this stone from Tiffany's. Then halfway across the Atlantic, she changed her mind and run off with another man. Well, I wouldn't have minded so much, only she took the jewel with her! You see, that wasn't a fair do. You see, I had given her it in contemplation of marriage. And, frankly, $100,000 is a bit much to pay for three days' fumbling on the high seas.
Poirot:
Oh, monsieur, who can put a price on les affaires de coeur?
Sir Horace Blatt:
Well, I bloody can. And this was too high!
