Giles Havelock: [after Jessica exposes him as the murderer] I worked late last night after the auction writing checks to creditors, as a matter of fact, in anticipation of the fat commission from this. Then I began thinking about Diana's behavior and Felix Wesker, Lawrence Mezznou and the ridiculous price. And then your request for that list of stolen artworks. There was obviously more to it than met the eye. I let myself into the storeroom and examined the canvas. And then I realized it was one of Degas' stretchers. I was contemplating what to do next when the decision was made for me. I watched from the shadows as Angus stole the painting. When he left, I came back in here, grabbed my letter opener and followed him to his studio. Those three generations of tradition, they were a formidable burden, Jessica. It was the only way I could see to keep Greylight Auction Galleries from going under.
