Posey: You want a motive? I'll give you a motive. That woman gave Kendall her room key. I saw her do it. Her plan was to seduce him to insure that she would win the job as his assistant. Then she got the other key to the room from that woman there. She- She rushed up to the room. She tore off her clothes.
Sophia: That's Velcro. It just gives the illusion of a tear.
Posey: She flung her dress on the bed. She slipped into a negligee and awaited her prey. What she didn't realize was the reason that Kendall went to her room, the reason Kendall ordered the champagne, was to let her down easy. He'd already promised the job to me. And the reason he went to her room, rather than having her come to his, was that I was sharing his room.
Blanche: Slut!
Posey: When Kendall told her the truth, she flew into a jealous rage. She plunged the steak knife into his chest. That tramp murdered my lover!
Dorothy: I know Blanche Devereaux, Lieutenant, and this tramp is incapable of committing murder.
