(Episode 2)
1. It is six o'clock on a very cold winter evening. People are in their living-rooms and watch the news on television or listen to it on the radio. There is one very important piece of news this evening. It is this.
«In the West of England this evening, hundreds of policemen are looking for a man who escaped from Princeville Prison early this morning. The man's name is Edward Coke. He is 30 years old, six feet tall, and has black hair and blue eyes. He is in a dark blue prison uniform. The police do not think he can stay free very long. It is only a few degrees above zero and it is snowing».
2. The radio is on in an expensive pub in Soho, in the centre of London. Most of the people there are not very interested in the news programme, but one man is. His name is Eric Masters. He is about 45 and is in very expensive clothes. He looks very afraid of something. There is another man standing next to him in the bar. Masters asks him a question.
«Did they say the man's name was Coke?»
«Yes, that's right. Coke... Edward Coke. Why? Do you know him?»
«Pardon?»
«Do you know him?»
«No... no, I don't know him... I just wanted to know the man's name, that's all».
3. In another part of London, a young detective is standing in the office of his chief at Scotland Yard. The young detective's name is Richard Baxter.
«You knew Coke, didn't you, Baxter?»
«Yes, sir. I arrested him four years ago».
«Yes, I know that, Baxter. That's why I give you this order, now. Find Coke again! You must find him immediately!»
