Old Mobster: The last transport went good. No cops, no nothing. And the product is great. 65% sucrose, can you believe that?
Young Mobster: Wow. no wonder the boss is getting so rich. I hope we'll get a cut of the profit.
Detective: Are those gangsters, talking about a smuggling operation? What are they doing in Telly Cane's apartment?
Old Mobster: Speaking of cuts, where's this Cane guy? Are you sure this is his apartment? I told you to check it.
Young Mobster: Yeah, I'm sure. But we're waiting here for hours now. Maybe we'll get him tomorrow? Come on, let's go.
Detective: Oh no, I'm in the way! They'll see me!
Old Mobster: No, not the front door. Someone might see us. Let's take the fire escape.
Young Mobster: Good thinking!
Detective: Wheeew!
When you enter the living room:
Detective: It looks like they were here, but they left through the window. I hope they didn't snatch the report!

Finale[]
If you fail:
Sam Lowry: Detective, my meeting with the mayor is in five minutes. Where's the report?
Detective: I'm sorry, but it's like finding a needle in a hay stack.
Sam Lowry: Great. I just need to make up a couple of pages of data. Oh well, I'll tell him what he wants to hear.
If you win:
Detective: Here's the report, Mr. Lowry. But I stumbled upon some gangsters while looking for it.
Sam Lowry: Oh my! Well, let me take a look at it. The mayor will need it soon.
Sam Lowry: Hmmm, those findings are very disturbing. The dental report...
Detective: Don't tell me. I don't want to be a part of it, Mr. Lowry. One close encounter with gangsters is enough for me. Just pay me please, and I'll forget about it.
