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.
