- Zalenko: I must congratulate you on the use of your umbrella.
- John Steed: Thank you. And may I compliment you, what was it you were trying to do to your friend?
- Zalenko: Disjoint his left arm from its socket over my right shoulder.
- John Steed: And where did you learn that particular piece of nastiness?
- Zalenko: Saturday afternoons, British television, last time I was here. You should watch.
- Zalenko: Well, I'm asking you again, what happened?
- Stefan Veliko: I've told you twice.
- Zalenko: Tell me again.
- Stefan Veliko: Mr. Peterson and Mrs. Gale had been here to talk about organizing the tour. They left, and I started to practice. A concert pianist must practice several hours a day, you ought to know that by now, Zalenko.
- Zalenko: The piece you were practicing.
- Stefan Veliko: It was the A-flat Polonaise by Chopin which is exactly the same answer I gave you twice before.
- Zalenko: Go on.
- Stefan Veliko: I finished the piece and I wished to go to the bathroom. You want to know what for?
- Zalenko: No.
- Zalenko: I don't expect you to trust me, Mr. Steed, but I think you must agree my reconstruction is logical.
- John Steed: I remember you got top marks at college for deduction.
- Catherine Gale: Burns was waiting for me. We've been playing one sided Russian Roulette.
- John Steed: I told you gambling would be the death of you.
- John Steed: What were you trying to do to your 'friend'?
- Zalenko: Disjoint his left arm from its socket over my right shoulder
- John Steed: And where did you learn that particular piece of nastiness?
- Zalenko: Saturday afternoon British television, last time I was here. You should watch
- Zalenko: [Cathy arrives with Steed in tow] But I thought the British Cultural Council was only sending one person.
- Catherine Gale: Eh...
- John Steed: Mrs. Gale and I met on the doorstep.
