Start: Countess: You seem troubled. Poirot: I am getting more and more concerned. Countess: That another crime will occur? Poirot: No. That I will solve this one. (Poirot picks up one of the passports and reads the contents) Countess. What is your maiden name?

End: Countess: It’s the truth, I swear to God! But I’ll tell you this: If I had known who he was - that he was Bruno Cassetti - the man who stole two of the people I loved most in this world - I would have pushed the dagger through his chest myself, and believe me, no other wound would have been necessary!
