 When I first informed you of Barney Slade's death at the Penny Arcade at Ocean Park, you told me you'd never met the man. That's right. I had no way of knowing it was Tom. Not until last night when I went to the mortuary. Had you ever been in or near the Penny Arcade at any time, Miss Gale, previous to the murder? Yes. Two nights before. Why didn't you mention this to me when I spoke with you before? I don't know. I was frightened.
