Hercule Poirot: Your ticket. [points in her purse]
Hercule Poirot: I might also ask you if you enjoyed your time there - as a governess? The chalk on your sleeve and the Geography Primer. A governess or a cartographer. I made my gamble.
Miss Mary Debenham: I always begin them with geography and monster them until the have the world down cold. They may get lost in math; but, I'll be damned if they don't know where they are.
