DL079: Hercule Poirot: The Case of the Careless Victim — Act 2: Scenes 3 & 4

Come along, Johnny!

Poirot and Miss Fletcher go in search of Laura Parrish. Poirot gets Johnny, the elevator man, to join the search. Why does he need Johnny? What is his real purpose in inviting Johnny along?

Johnny says Poirot is wasting his time in the basement. He seems to be trying to make him give up his search.

It is as I feared.

But the search does pay off. What do they find? Does this lead to any more clues?

In a fog

When Poirot gets back to Parrish’s room, he finds that Inspector Stevens didn’t keep a careful eye on Mr Parrish. Stevens thinks his investigation is more important than playing bodyguard to a man who doesn’t appreciate it. He admits, however, that he hasn’t gotten anywhere in his investigation. His mind is cloudy; he is still in a fog.
