Quote context

- You may remember the case. Maxwell Frere, the ventriloquist, was charged with the attempted murder of a man in the same line of business, Sylvester Kee, an American.

- My friend Maurice Olcott, who was defending the case, wanted my opinion on the state of his mind.

- Hello, Frere. This is Dr. Van Straaten. He's going to help us with the case.

- How do you do, Mr. Frere?

- I had the pleasure of seeing your performance last year at the Hague. It was most...

- Doctor, eh? A brain specialist?

- Psychiatrist.

- I thought as much.

- You want to psychoanalyse me, don't you? Want to look inside my brain and see how the wheels go around... Dissect me like a guinea pig. Then show me off to you distinguished colleagues as an interesting case.

- Well, that's it, isn't it?

- Hardly.

- But it's possible that I may be able to help you if you are prepared to help me.

- Now, I'd like to ask you a few questions.

- You're wasting your time, Doctor. I'm not mad. I don't want your help. Nor yours, either.

- Hugo's the only one who can help me.

- The dummy?

- Yes, the police are holding it as evidence.
