Quote context

[...]

- When I said I was Mr. Boddy's butler, this was both true and misleading. I was once his butler, but it was not his untimely death this evening that brought my employment with him to an end.

- When did it come to an end?

- When my wife decided to end her life.

- She, too, was being blackmailed by this odious man who now lies dead before us.

- He hated my wife for the same reason he hated all of you. He believed that you were all thoroughly un-American.

- I'm sorry.

- For some reason he felt that it was inappropriate for a senator to have a corrupt wife, for a doctor to take advantage of his patients, for a wife to emasculate her husband, and so forth.

- But this is ridiculous. If he was such a patriotic American, why didn't he just report us to the authorities?

- He decided to put his information to good use and make a little money out of it. What could be more American than that?

- And what was your role in all this?

- I was a victim, too. At least, my wife was. She had friends who were socialists.

- Oh my God.
