Informant : I know who she is... the Legendary PAULA PERiL!
Thug #3 : Paula PERiL?... the REPORTER?... I thought she was made up - is she for REAL?
Informant : The one and only.
Thug #2 : What's SHE doin' here?
Informant : She must think there's a story here... and she's snooping around, looking for clues...
[waving a block of plastic explosive in front of the bound and gagged Paula]
Informant : I've got a BIG story for you... Front. Page.
Paula Peril : MMPPH!

Paula Peril : [struggling as she watches the time-bomb tick down to zero] MMPH! Mmph, mmph... MMMPH! Mmph, MMMPPPHH! MMPPH! Mmph - snort! Mmph, mmph...
Informant : [disabling time-bomb with two seconds to go] I wonder what they'll say about this?
[walking towards Paula]
Informant : Sorry about earlier - I had to get them out of the building
[ungags Paula, then stoops down to begin cutting her bonds]
Paula Peril : [slowly working her cramped jaw after being ungagged] Thanks... who ARE you?
Informant : [stands] I'm the one who called you.
[continues untying Paula]
Paula Peril : [puzzled, trying to understand] WHY are you helping me?
Informant : Listen, I'll explain it another time, but for now, just listen: it's the Finance Director - she's the one you need to talk to.
[continuing to cut Paula's bonds]
Informant : She has all the records - enough evidence to put Vincelli away FOR GOOD
Paula Peril : [stumbles & gasps as she is suddenly released from her pole-tie; is caught by the informant] I didn't think I'd get out of THAT one.
Informant : I think you're going to be around for awhile. Try to stay out of trouble... This little meeting of ours? - NEVER. HAPPENED.
[places his hand on Paula's shoulder - they stare meaningfully at each other]
Informant : Take care, Paula PERiL.
[he turns and walks off, then turns around & tips his hat]
Informant : I enjoy watching you work
[He turns again & leaves. Paula gazes wistfully after him as he goes. She starts to speak, but doesn't]
