    A policeman’s life is not a happy one, happy… wait a tick, there’s surveillance footage.

    And the news will soon reach Linton’s father. Poor Lincoln.

    “Britain has more security cameras than any other country.” True. And the British police employ “super recognizers” (people with an uncanny gift for recognizing faces) to watch the video footage and spot people who have arrest warrants out for them.

    They are now fugitives from justice. (I have read the book containing this, but I don’t remember how this ends). And if I did, I wouldn’t tell.

    Didn’t know the British police had such an extensive network of pneumatic tubes.

    P.C. Thirty-One said “We caught a dirty one”

    Linton stands alone

    Painting testimonial pictures ohh oh oh oh

    Mildred and Lottie screaming from the gallery

    Say he must go free (Linton must go free)

    The judge does not agree and he tells them so oh oh oh

    But as the words are leaving his lips

    A noise comes from behind
