Silver may be making a mistake by trying to gild the lily with his “1857 phonautograph machine,” and he is surely wasting time (with his “toothache,” no less!) in offering to set it up for Auntie Bea. Yes, someone that he’d rather not see could show in that short time, either Public Domain (“Where do you think you’re going with that $250K?”) or Dick Tracy (“You’re under arrest for jailbreak, being a fugitive, and bunco.”). Sprocket might lean on the horn, but I suspect she’d split at the last moment, without Silver….

What will Sprocket do when she sees P.D. or D.T. pull up ?

Maybe, but it could keep the lady more off balance till he can get out of there.

Surprised Ms. Thorndike didn’t bring in 3rd party expert to authenticate the phonautograph.
