Nick says "Hello, Lieutenant. What's new and interesting?" Riley says "Well, if it ain't my old friend Nicholas Carter, who used to be a detective". Nick says "Yeah. What do mean used to be?" Riley says "Sure, my boy. Tell me. How does it feel to be old and retired?" Nick says "Oh, come now, Riley. I get it. You're a little peeved because I've turned down those few cases you've offered me lately. Riley says "It's not a few separate cases, Nick. It's all been the same gang. I'm sure of it. They're the slickest bunch this department's ever been up against. We need your help, Nick. Look at this. It came over the wire only this morning". Nick reads the message and says "Another society robber. Quite a haul". Riley says "Yes, my boy, quite a haul. 75,000 dollars worth of gems right out of the vault. What do you say now, Nick?. He says "I think you're right. It looks like the same hand in every job. I suggest that for your criminal, you look for someone who's accepted in the homes of society and is just about the greatest safe cracker in the country, as well". Riley says "Oh, thank you, Nick. That's a very great help, I'm sure". Nick says "Oh, I'm sorry, Riley, but really, I'm not interested. You know, I don't take a case unless it's in the name of ...." Suddenly, a rock is thrown through a glass window near them! Riley says "What in the name of ..." Nick says "Wow, that was close. That stone missed you by inches". Riley says "Sure. Somebody's trying to bean me now, is it? Well, I'll fix that ...." Nick says "Wait a minute, Riley. That isn't it. This seems to be a little matter of communication". Riley says "Communication?" Nick says "Look, there's a note tied to that stone".
