- I don't know how innocent you may be... but you're a woman, you're defenceless, and you're alone on a desolate moor in the dark.

- And you're manacled to a murderer who would stop at nothing to get you off his hands.

- I see some lights over that way. We'll do a little investigating.

- Well, I won't go. I'm gonna stay right here.
