51. The memory
Robert Green accidentally says that the person who brought the Turner drawings to the shop was a woman, not a man.
Natalie: Didn’t you say that it was a man that brought you the drawings? A mysterious man?
Alice: Yes, you did. I remember perfectly! You never mentioned a woman….
Robert Green: That’s right…. I did say it was a man. But now I remember. It wasn’t a man who brought me the Turner drawings. It was a woman!
Alice: Why did you say it was a man?
Robert Green: My memory is very poor…. I couldn’t remember very well.
Alice: Hmm…. And now you remember?
Robert Green: Yes, now I remember. It was a woman.
Alice: Was it a woman with black curly hair and green eyes by any chance?
Robert Green: Hmm…. Yes, it was! Now I remember; it was a woman with black curly hair and green eyes.
