Quote context

[...]

- And the murderer must not be permitted to remain in the building indefinitely. It is my duty to apprehend him.

- I don't understand.

- If Christine DuBois sings, that will satisfy the murderer, and he may never appear. So to lure him from his hiding place, someone else must sing.

- Are you suggesting that we reopen the Opera with a murder as an added attraction?

- I shall post police throughout the building, even with the chorus on the stage, with a special bodyguard for the singer.

- But, monsieur, our reputation...

- I am reluctant to do this, monsieur, particularly on Mademoiselle DuBois' account, but I can see no other way.

- Whomever you decide.

- Madame Morency.

- She has nerve, that woman.

- Too much.

- Very well, then. The Opera will reopen.

- Yes, monsieur.
