Man: Well, I had a breakdown(汽车抛锚) yesterday and had to stay the night here. The landlady's name is Mrs. Fern. She gave me breakfast at seven, and I got out of here in the right way. Later I realized I'd left 80 under the pillow here in her house. So I came rushing back. I rang the bell for ten minutes but no one answered the bell. And then I spotted my bedroom window still open. Up I went, then, up this pipe. She hadn't made the bed, and the money was still there. You know the rest, and I hope you believe it ...

Mrs. Fern: (from the kitchen window): Mr. Crane, whatever are you doing here? I thought you'd gone away an hour ago.
