Whittington asks Tuppence her name, and being a little suspicious she pulls a name from out of the air. Whittington is startled and believes that Tuppence has been toying with him. Jane Finn is the girl he wanted her to impersonate. Tommy only mentioned it because he thought it was a strange name. Before he can get an answer his assistant, Mr. Brown, interrupts to say Whittington has an important phone message.
Tuppence is given some money and asked to return the next day.
When she returns with Tommy the next day, the office is closed. The company has moved out. One is from an American millionaire, Julius P. Hersheimmer, who claims that Jane Finn is his cousin and that he is trying to locate her. The second reply is from a Mr. A. Carter who Tommy recognizes from his war days as an official with the British secret service. When it is obvious that Tommy knows who he really is, Mr. Carter explains the truth about Miss Finn.
