Quotes 

• Detective : You know, it's a it's a shame what happened, Mr. Dupont. Now, I understand that the, uh the deceased, you and he were business partners.

  Raymond Dupont : Yeah, but it was It was more than that. I knew Jack my whole life. I asked for this meeting in hopes to recover some documents that were left in his room.

  Detective : Yeah, well, I wish I could help. Teddy Franklin's legal team has already petitioned for the release of all business documents found at the scene. Legally, seems they belong to him. He's sending someone to collect them today.

  Raymond Dupont : Oh.Well, good. Well, I'll just have to give the ol' father-in-law a call.

  Detective : You know, but since you're here, I've got a question. The coroner ruled Jack's death as an accident, but we believe a-a woman visited that room Maybe had a drink with him, hmm?

  Raymond Dupont : What makes you think that?

  Detective : Housekeeping. The room was cleaned and reset with three glasses, and my forensics team recovered two glasses. And the, uh the club manager, he also reported there was a lingering scent of women's perfume in the bungalow where you both discovered the body. Didn't you notice any of that?

  Raymond Dupont : Can I level with you, Detective? Look, Jack was far from perfect, and he often hired some high-end escorts to keep him company. But I would appreciate it if the family didn't find out just how complicated Jack was.Only because we wouldn't want the sordid details of his private life to leave a stain on the large donation that's gonna be made to the Police Foundation in Jack's name.

  Detective : No. Uh, no, we wouldn't want that.

  Raymond Dupont : So, um, thank you. Thank you. Thank you for your time.

  Detective : Thank you, Mr. Dupont.
